1. How does your media product
represent particular social
groups? Evaluation Question 2
By Ethan Whitmore

2. Introduction
In my film it represents 4 social groups and then the social groups experience a
conflict between good vs evil.
Before I went out filming I planned this out in a blog post and it talks about how
different social groups appeal to different ages and genre also, the types of
social groups you use can affect the feel to the film as you if you want it to be a
children's comedy film then you would probly would not have gangs in it but if
you were doing a 18+ crime film then you probably. So before I started filming I
thought about this and who I want to be represented. Also, the age of the people
who are the main charcters as you want the main charcter to be the same age as
your target audience.

Males Teen

4. Social groups the bad guys represents
Teens Triad Males

5. Teens
The first social group I represent is Teens. I represent these by having actors
who are also teem ages. I did this because it is far easier for someone to relate
to someone who is their own age. So this means my film will appeal to my target
audience. Also, in my film I represent teen social group by the clothes they wear
as I made them wear as they were wearing informal cloths as that is a typical
convention of Teen social group.

6. Males
Also, in my film another social group that is represented is males. I did this by
getting male actors to play them because like teens the best way to represent a
social group is to have someone from that social group play it. Also, for the
representation of males I used props such as guns and fight scenes as these
appeal to males as they are seen to be macho things. This helps me to represent
male social group.

7. Triad
Also, another social group that is represented in my film is a tryad. This is
represented by the three bad guy who are protecting the artifact. A triad is a
group of three people who are a team. This social group is This is a social group
with three members, which contains three relationships, each uniting two of the
three people. A triad is more stable than a dyad because one member can act as
a mediator should the relationship between the other two become strained

8. Good vs evil
All these social groups are represented in a fight between good and evil. So you
have the triad who are the bad guys and this is shown by them all having gun
which helps represent the male social group and guns also appeal to males.
Furthermore, the main character who is the good guy represents males, teen
social groups and you know he is the good guy as he is the first character
introduced and you can see his face and it made clear from the start ho he is.

9. Summary
To summarize, in my film there are multiple social groups that are represented in
my film and this is is to appeal to my target audience. Because the target
audiences I want to appeal to my audience and the best way to do that is make
the audience relate to the characters in my film and I represent social groups by
the way they dress and look, so it follows my genre and creates an appeal.
