ETHNICITY Uponcloseanalysis,itmaybe arguedthatourrepresentation doesstillchallengesomeofthe nuancesofrepresentation.Our character,Susanhasentirelyblack clothing-encodingherasan archetypalProppvillain.Hence, rejectingVanDijk’sclaimthat onlyblackcharactersare associatedwithvillainous characteristics.

GENDER Inthisscene,bothfemaleandmalecharacters areshowntobeplayingsport.Thischallenges Almyetal’sfindingsthatthemediareinforces traditionalgenderroles.It’sunstereotypical forafemalecharactertobeplayingsport-so thisrepresentationischallenged.Although,it maybearguedthatthemiseenscenereinforces thedominantideology.Susan’sbodylanguage isreallyexaggerated(forexamplejumpingin theair)whileEthanremainscalmandmostly stationery.Plus,herblackcostumemayencode herasavillainforchallengingthishegemonic belief.OurrepresentationalsorejectsNewbold’s statementthatfemalecharactersaresexualised whenplayingsport.

GENDER Jack’srepresentationchallengesthestereotype ofonlywomencaringabouttheappearance. Themiseenscenedepictsthecharactertobe doinghishair-rejectingthismisconception.

SEXUALITY Susan’scostumecouldcontribute tonegativerepresentationof homosexualrelationships.Ina way,wehaveencodedherasa villainduetothebinarydark connotationsofhercostume.
