Evaluation - Question 2
'How does your media product represent particular social groups?'
All media texts are representations of reality. This means that they are made, written, framed, cropped, captioned targeted by their producers and that they are just different versions of situations in real life.
Representation most commonly used are:
- Gender- - Age
- - Race
- - Disability
We in our opening have decided to represent the social group of teenagers. We have decided to use the partys that they attend to be almost a motif in the film.
We represented the teenagers in a negative aspect as it was a party and there was drugs and alcohol involved. The teenagers were portrayed to be dead and also some un-conscious. We chose this as it is very normal and everyday for a party to happen. Kids are going crazy and having a very good time. No one knows what can happen when your not thinking straight. That is why we chose this as a topic and a good base to do a thriller movie about a mysterious teenage murderer.
Bellow are some screen grabs of our thriller opening:

Here is one of the teenagers who is unconscious. You can tell as she is still awake however does not know what is happening.
