1. How does your media product represent particular social groups? By Amy Wright

2. Shot 1- ‘Mistake’ On the table there is an empty picture frame. This connotes to her family never being there, and that part of her life always being empty. The dressing table in the room is messy and displaced representing the teenage girl to not care about her belongings.

3. Shot 2- ‘Mistake’ The walls are bland apart from the posters being stuck up on the wall. The posters are of teenage interests of this era: Chipmunk (a popular RnB artist) and New Moon (a craze teenagers have a strong interest in). This will represent the character within the film as having the ‘normal’ interests as the majority of teenage girls.

4. Shot 3- ‘Mistake’ This is the first shot of the main character. This shot is a mid shot from outside of the room as if the world is looking in on her. This could suggest the character feeling alienated in her own home. There is hardly any decoration in her room, only white bland walls, white plain bed sheets and the furniture is white. This could represent her not having enough money to decorate her room or her not having the effort to decorate and would rather leave it bland.

5. Shot 4- ‘Mistake’ This is a long shot where the male teenage characters are first introduced. The two characters both walk into the shot representing them over powering the area they walk in. The clothing of the two characters represent them having pride in what they wear compared to the main female character. The mise en scene around them is the bus stop where teenagers usually hang out so our target audience can relate to it.

6. Shot 5- ‘Mistake’ This is a mid/close-up shot of the main character trying to get in contact with her boyfriend. The shot is still representing the importance of it to the character. Behind the character is the poster of Chipmunk representing her teenage interests which our target audience can relate to when watching the film.

7. Shot 6- ‘Mistake’ This mid shot introduces the audience to how she dresses. This represents her misplaced character and her not bothered about what she looks like. This shot shows the house in which she lives in. The house, like her bedroom, is bland with no colour adding to her thoughts at the time in the film: confused and blank.

8. Shot 7- ‘Mistake’ This is a close-up intense shot of the main male character. This represents his personality of being mean and intense from the dialogue he is saying about his girlfriend Paige. By including this in our first two minutes it introduces the characters personality right at the beginning of the film. It also introduces the narrative of film so our audience can grasp an idea of the plot by the representation of the character.

9. Shot 8- ‘Mistake’ The mise en scene of this shot shows the house in which Paige lives in. The ornament cabinet is full of ‘old’ style figures suggesting these are ‘keep-sake’ possessions of the family that are kept secure. This represents her family take pride in some of their possessions. This shot shows the main character entering the shot. This suggests she is going somewhere creating an enigma for the audience: where is she going? Who is she meeting? This represents her independence.

10. Shot 9- ‘Mistake’ This is one of our favourite shots because it shows the character entering the shot and leaving the shot. The shot shows the character leaving the house without locking the door even when no one is in the house. This represents her careless attitudes and her not thinking of the consequences of her actions; a main theme which is included in the rest of our film.

11. Shot 10- ‘Mistake’ This long shot allows the audience to she how the character feels about her appearance. With what she is wearing it shows her careless idea about what she looks like compared to her boyfriend. This long shot also shows the empty drive representing no one is in or they can’t afford a car. The could also suggest to the audience the emptiness and loneliness of her life.

12. Shot 11- ‘Mistake’ The end shot shows in the mise en scene the area in which she lives in. This represents her upbringing and could give the audience an idea to where she lives now. This final shot also shows the main character answering the phone to someone. This creates an enigma for the audience and relates back to the narrative leaving the audience wondering if her boyfriend rings back.
