CoP 3 Riot Section

In this trailer I wanted people to think about the consequences of Cybernetic implants, and the effects it has, examples are I,Robot with an advanced A.I.(artificial Intelligence) ruling over the world.  Deus Ex and the 'poorer' people not able to pay for the augmentations and how the companies are more powerful than the governments, therefore unable to do anything about it.
In today's world there are cybernetics in humans, to help people with lost ligaments, but with technology advancing rapidly from the simple plastic prosthetic ligaments are changing into machinery which receives electronic pluses from the muscles/brain in the body and makes it move.  Which sounds amazing for helping people however what would happen if in half a decades time there were people who would misuse this technology?
From this I thought it would make my trailer interesting and different.  One set back to this was there was no recent riots in Leeds, and I had looked up for the next riot/protest which would be happening and unfortunately it was in London about specific material, which is not a good idea really.
Luckily I found a website which sells Royalty Free Footage and I searched for riots and found a 1hr long mix of riots in the news which came from "UnusedNewFootage" (user name) had placed up, now because it was news footage I thought this was great, but I decided to E-mail him asking about the footage.  It turns out the footage is two years old and belongs to the company as stock footage but is getting rid of/going into storage therefore they decided to put it up on this website for £30.  I thought would be great as £30 was wroth the cost of this footage since I wouldn't be able to create a riot/protest myself.
The footage in this was great and I've used to sections to get the best effect for my film trailer.  Then by creating text boxes in the lower third of the screen as news articles.
Below is how they came out.

I decided to use two different colours to get the audience to notice that the text had change form the previous one.  Another point is the use of a robotic voice over to say out the heading of the news articles, one male and the other female so the audience notices the difference and listens in.
