1. Exploring different social groups, helped us decide which best fit the role of our actress, and how we were going to portray stereotypical images of that social group and how it was also going to challenge it. SOCIAL GROUPS

An example of this is in the series scrubs where the doctors are seen in a more humorous view approaching there professionalism quite lightly. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmDgpgfYYZc We looked at different careers and professions in the social group sector to see different views and how they target different audiences. http://images.mylot.com/userImages/images/postphotos/2275137.jpg

8. Looking at different social groups helped us approach the character that best fit our film. Exploring the different stereotypes reinforced and challenged in other media institutes allowed us to create our own ideas but also bringing in the ideas that have already been brought up in this social group. A scientist best fit our film scenario, and we have challenged and reinforced many ideas that surround this social group in order for our character to fit in with our genre. The social group has allowed us to focus our genre on science fiction although bringing in the elements of action at the same time.
