Q2 - How does your media product represent particular social groups?


 My media product represents particular social groups in many ways. There is only one character in my opening, so that means the social group represented in my film is narrowed down. He is quite obviously in his teenage years, which brings in the social group of young adults, but he owns a knife and is obviously a drug dealer. Therefore he must be troubled. As he is a teenager he must still be living at home with his family as he would not be able to support himself. Which represents the social group of family. It also raises the question of what his relationship with his family is like, does he get on well with them? The audience could also infer that his family will be involved in the film at some point. There are also drawings in crayon on the wall when he walks out of his back door, the audience would infer from this he has a younger sibling, more specifically a girl as there is a drawing of a flower on the wall. To conclude, the main social group represented within my film is a troubled teenage boy living at home with his family, which raises a lot of questions.
