The document discusses representations of social groups in a film. It describes portraying women as more vulnerable when alone in isolated areas. The main character Lucy is shown walking alone in the woods at night, where attacks begin to happen. Lucy is depicted as having long, unfeminine hair to subvert expectations and allow her to survive as the "final girl". The film aims to show that certain social groups like young women are seen as more naive or gullible by walking alone at night or having spiritual beliefs.

1. How does you media represent social groups? The representations we decided to communicate was the stereotype that women are weaker when left alone this is represented when the character Lucy is left alone to walk through the woods is when the attacks start too happen. In the film there is only women characters we decided to portray the girl “Lucy” wears her hair down long, there's no specific style to it. This defeminises her as her hair isn't in curls or styled in a feminine way and doesn’t make her look stand out this is significant because throughout the film she is to become the “final girl” and the image helps her to not be the stereotypical “ditz” girl who dies first. Our thriller shows that young teenage girls are more vulnerable, most adults wouldn't walk through an isolated forest in the dark, but the fact that she chose to do it show’s she’s pretty naive, also it shows that certain social groups have different beliefs the fact that she’s dreaming about witchcraft she's spiritual and to others gullable. We chose our actors based on what our characters should look like; Medium build, long brown hair, as that was what was suited we could of chose a slim blonde to play the part but later on in the film the character starts to stand up to the antagonist and the defeminisation makes her look more strong and less weak. Nobody dies in our opening sequence this shows that the character is significant in the film and will play a main character .
