How does your media
   product represent
particular social groups?
         By Jack Knight
What is a Social Group?
 A social group is a number of individuals
  interacting with one another and usually have
  many things in common. So in our opening
  sequence we decided to use Gangs, Ethnicity
  and Teenagers/Young Adults to portray society
  within our opening sequence.
Gangs
 In our opening sequence we used M-E-S to represent gangs. We
  did this by picking a location which looked like a place where
  gangs would hang around and cause trouble. We wanted a remote
  place that made you feel when watch you were in a rough area.
  Through the use of costume we were able to make the gang look
  stereotypical by dressing them up in tracky bottom and hoodies.
  We also had them have their hood up for most of the filming
  because it would have given away their identity to early on and this
  is what it is like in real society.
Ethnicity
 In our opening sequence we played on the role of ethnicity. We did
   this because our film follows a lot of conventions of other Urban
   Dramas and we wanted to do the same. We used ethnicity all the
   way through our film because it is like that in society. So we had a
   black male play the role as gang leader because it is stereotypical
   in society for a black man to more powered then a white man and
   this is how society sees it. But we did use a white man in our
   opening sequence as well because we wanted to make our film
   more anti-stereotypical because we wanted to show that society
   should be equal and everyone IS equal.
Teenagers/Young Adults
 After doing out target audience research we found out that
  our audience was between 15 – 19 so we decided to use
  actors of that age group because I would have made the
  audience connect more with the characters and shared
  emotion. A lot of what we did for our opening sequence was
  to fit in with our target audience. So we used M-E-S to
  represent the younger generation and connect to them. We
  had the actors speak like teenagers would and how they
  would act when confronting someone. Also with the costume
  we tried to make the actors look more like teenagers while
  following the conventions of Urban Dramas. Our music is
  very much like what young adults and teenagers like to
  listen to.
