Evaluation: Question 2

  How does your media product
represent particular social groups?
Representation
 Representation is the use of signs that stand in
 for and take the place of something else.




 Source:
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representation_(arts)
Characters: Will Smith from I Am
Legend & Stewart from Last Man
Standing.
Ways that the two are similar
 Both their Costumes are similar as they’re both
  dressed casually. This is Hoodie/Jacket, jeans
  and trainers, because they have no one to
  impress and nothing to look forward to.
 They both have similar roles in the film. They both
  are looking for life in a post apocalyptic world.
  This shows that they have a similar roles in
  society
 Both are set in an urban area, which represents
  them as your normal, everyday person looking
  round an area where everyone would be if they
  were alive.
The differences between the two
characters:
 Although it’s not human, Will Smith in I Am
  Legend has company in the form of a dog
  whereas in our Opening sequence, Stewart is the
  only person and animal alive.
 In I Am Legend, Will Smith has a enemy however
  in our opening sequence, Stewart has no enemy.
  Having a dog for a friend and no human contact
  at all represent them as very lonely people who
  are desperate for human contact.
 Also, Will has a gun in the movie, which is a
  difference in appearance and props. It makes Will
  Smith look more thug-like in the film whereas
  Stewart looks more vulnerable.
