2. How does your media product represent particular social groups?
Our media product is primarily aimed at teenagers, so we decided to cast our actors used in our film, also as teenagers so that the audience can relate to the narrative. We also show an image of a stereotypical teenage day/night out in Hastings involving alcohol and friends these two things the majority of teenagers can relate to.
The girl that we used looks like a sterotypical middle class teenage girl. We showed this through the costume choice, even though we use a working class setting.
We show a stereotypical side to females in the opening. She is the vunerable female 'the princess' of the film. The way this group is represented by our film suggests that there are currently real concerns for that age, class and gender. A major concern is the economic decline our kidnapper represent economic crisis, and how the girl is overcoming this by the end of the film.
