The document discusses how social groups were represented in a media product. The killer was represented stereotypically through dark clothing and lighting that hid their face and created mystery. The detective was represented differently, wearing plain clothes at first to be undercover but in a well-lit office setting that clearly showed him as an authority figure once his role was revealed. Overall, the document evaluates how the characters of the killer and detective were stereotypically portrayed through visual cues like clothing, lighting, and camera angles to fit expectations.

social groups?
Question Two.

2. How did we represent the killer?
• The killer wore dark clothes, this gave
off the stereotypically look of he was
the main antagonist within the film.
• We also used dark lighting in the killer’s
room, this gave the audience a sense of
perspective of something isn't quite
right in the shot and also creates a
sense of mystery about the killer as
you can’t see the killers face because of
the camera’s angle.
• We used different camera angles
depending on the different character, in
the killers case, we used a angle that
doesn't allow the viewers to see the
killers face creating a sense of mystery
and making them want to watch more.

3. • The detective wore plain clothes, this
wasn't a clear indication that he was a
detective until he said so in a
conversation.
• The detective was in a office that looked
like a typical office with the use of props
and lighting etc.
• The lighting in the scene with the
detective was clear and bright so the
audience could always see him clearly.
• At one point a high camera angle is
used on the detective as he doesn't
have power and clearly shows this.

4. OVERALL
• Overall we were stereotypically correct in the
ideology of our characters and other parts of our film.
• Our killer wore stereotypically black/dark clothes and
was sat in a dark room.
• Our detective wore clothes as if he was undercover,
although he also portrayed a sense of authority and
showed his dominance.
