1. 2. How does your media product represent particular social groups?
Our media product represents particular social groups in different ways, in terms of age you know by looking at the clip that they
are in their teen’s as they are in school uniform and look young, the gender is also pretty obvious as it has two young
females, the male who is involved in the clip is not shown but his shoes are. With this you have to use some sense as it is
normally males who are stalking girls or planning to kidnap them. The race of the two females are brown and mix raced and
we do not know about the stalker as his face is not shown in the clip. The girls social class would be working class as they
take this after the class that there parents are in. Gender is represented in a stereotypical way in our opening clip, it shows
us that women are more venerable than men because the two characters being kidnapped are females, it also shows that
that can not do much as maybe if it was males who was getting kidnapped they would try to put up a fight. The man is
shown as dominant and rough as he is looking to kidnap two helpless females. This links in with the target audience because
the opening is showing two young females so the thriller opening clip is targeted towards the younger generation mainly
teenagers. The pictures I have put up they look similar in terms of clothing and appearance. They also play the same role as
each other.
