How does your film opening represent particular social groups?

1. Question 2 - How does your media
product represent particular social
groups?
2. My media project conveys particular social groups in different ways,
as it follows the conventional stereotypes of a hooded thug and
black youth crimes. The different genders portrayed shows
originality within thrillers. But to make things different and
interesting, we decided to let a woman play the dominant role.
Which goes against the general stereotypes of what is seen in
society. The subordinate role, is portrayed by a man older than the
woman. In addition, the use of black ethnic minorities depicts the
stereotype of young black youths getting into trouble, causing a
nuisance and committing crimes. As a result, the stereotypes we
used in our thriller was the scary hooded youths.
