Evaluation task 2:How does your media product represent particular social groups
Our thriller doesn’t contain any social groups as such as it only has two characters in it but it does contain stereotypes of characters in a thriller the character being chased is a young male protagonist who has been pushed to his very limits by the pursuing force this is a conventional and stereotypical thriller character type used in films franchises such as the Bourne films and the Mission: impossible series the character chasing him is the antagonist and is brutish and aggressive and around the same age sent by a higher power to get rid of the protagonist.
We used mise en scene as a way to stereotype the characters more as we had our protagonist dressed in a white shirt and our antagonist in a black shirt the two colours always associated with good and evil so whilst also creating a bit of symbolism we stuck to the thriller convention of the villain of the narrative dressing in black and trying to stop the protagonist on his mission. although our film does not represent any social groups we could attract certain social groups like the use violence in our thriller could attract younger audiences who are more intrigued by violence and therefore more likely to watch the thriller
here is an example of action in our thriller we could also attract the attention of younger views which are our key target audience by advertising on social networking sites like Facebook or popular sites that are often used for advertising blockbuster films such as you tube
these sites are used by millions of young people everyday so if we displayed the trailer of our film on these sites then our film would get huge exposure.
we also thought about making different trailers and posters for different social groups like the ken loach film looking for Eric and the 2008 microwave film shifty
we could have trailers with fast paced editing and loud fast music to emphasise the action and exhilaration of our film for younger viewers and we could play this trailer on the internet and T.V. channels designed for younger viewers like E4 and BBC3 and in the trailers at cinemas and we could also make a slower paced trailer in black and white which displays the mysterious and psychological aspects of our thriller to appeal to an older audience.
Here is a wordel of all the different social groups and other things taken into consideration when we were filming our thriller.
