2) How does your media product represent particular social groups?

In our film the only social groups that are represented are white teenage males on the working class of society who take part in white collar crime.
This means our media product follows the stereotype that working class people take part in gritty crime,  this means there is somebody more powerful telling them what to do behind the scenes which the viwer doesnt get to see.
The people in our media product are portrayed in a negative light as they are seen to be taking part in crimes and harming others to get what they want.
Other stereotypes are that the youth of today arent nice people and our media product meets this stereotypes.

Blue collar crime.

In our thriller the bosses are all men this meets a stereotype as it suggests that women have no authority, especially in serious things.

The target audience for our media product is young people as from our audience research we found that the main audience of thrillers is teenagers, this is because it is a fast paced high octane film which appeals to the majority of young people and less so to older people.
