How Does Your Media Product Represent Different Social Group

Different social groups

• Age ranges (Child, adolescent, adult, elderly)

• Gender (Male/Female)• Race/Nationality (English, Spanish)• Religion (Christian, Jewish, ect.)• Villains/Protagonist (Which we used in

our own production)

Sally Blunt

• Female• Ex-FBI

agent• Independe

nt• Confident• Trained

We used a female roll for main character, This challenges the Thriller codes and conventions and shows originality in our production, due to main roles and hero's in thrillers being mostly males. Our inspiration came from Kill Bill, where she is a action fighting hero who wants revenge. We made our character have no dialogue and this creates mystery and let the audience concentrate on her actions and facial expression's rather than what she might say. We wanted sally to be an ex- FBI agent as we didn’t want her to come as a victim and let the audience know of her past and her skills in fighting just like the Bourne legacy and Kill Bill.

We got out inspiration for our mise en scene from Kill Bill also

where the hero wears jeans and a leather jacket.

Villain

• Male• Group• Masked• Dangerous• Sly

We decided to used a group of villains to make our film more intense and create and feeling of no escape, popular in common code and conventions of thrillers. We also used masks to create secret identities and keep an air of mystery about the villains. they all wore dark clothing so they could blend into the shadows and create the contrast of good and evil.They also were very confident and had sly moments and this makes them seen unnerving as it makes they seen that they will reach there target no matter what.

We wanted to use masks for our villain and our inspiration came from

batman and this creates the convention of hiding

identity
