Evaluation question- 2

How does your media product represent particular social groups?

Within our film opening only two characters are shown and the characters which are shown are not properly introduced. We have done this purposely in order for the audience to not know too much about each of the characters in order for them to ask questions.

The age is shown within the film opening to a certain extent because you can see the rough build of the main character which is introduced from the start. We have only allowed the audience to be able to have a rough guess at the age of the character because you cannot see the face at all to detect facial hair etc. This is because we did not want the audience knowing too much at this stage of the film so they ask questions to themselves in order to attract them in too watch the rest.
You could also guess the rough age of the character by what he is earing. You could see that they were wearing a suit and older men will ted to wear suits when going to work so this gave the audience an idea it was not going to be a young person.














Here is a screenshot of the protagonist and what he is wearing (a suit). You can tell from this frame that this man is not going to be below the age of 18 therefore makes our piece look more professional because we have an adult playing an adults character.
