The document discusses how a film represents social groups. It shows an Asian school boy being bullied by a popular Asian school boy, challenging stereotypes where the bully is typically strong and loud while the victim is meek. The film instead portrays the bully as small but mouthy and the victim as tall but unable to stand up for himself. The film aims to appeal to teens who have experienced teenage dilemmas, social cliques, bullying in school, or who have bullied others without realizing the impact.
1. 2. How does your media
represent particular social
groups?
2. In our film is based on a school boy getting bullied by another school
boy who is much popular than he is .
The victim and the bully are both Asian.
By having both the victim and the bully form the same background
is showing that it not always how it is thought even if they are from
the same background people might not get along and have conflict
with each other.
Normally in a stereotype, the bully would be a strong hard would be
mouthy ,uneducated, loud and often the bully might have problems
at home causing them to make misery in other peoples life because
there not satisfied with theirs. We have turned this stereotype
around by having the bully a skinny and small guy but mouthy were
as the bully is a tall a guy and looks strong however his character is
not making it hard for him to stand up for him self.
3. Our film is aimed to appeal at teens/young adults who:
Have been through a teenage dilemma
Attend school or have attended high school
have experienced social cliques in high schools
People that are experiencing bulling as it does happen a lot.
People that bully not realising what they might be causing in the other
