2. How does your media product represent partiuclar social groups?
We wanted our audience to know exactly what the two characters were actually up to at the start of the film. Whilst our primary way of making sure the audience knew was through linguistic signs (the speech), we also felt we could do it through visual representation of a stereotypical burglar/robber. The two pictures below our character shot show two stereotypical burglar looks. We combined forms of both to create our characters. We put our characters in clothing not too dissimilar to that which can be seen in the first picture, to connote their age, but had them carry a briefcase rather than a bag, like in the second picture, to connote that they knew what they were up to. This again I would argue, is another slightly unusual way of doing things which maintains audience interest.
