EVALUATION QUESTIONS:2 How does your media product represent particular social groups?



This Prezi enables the audience to understand how our group used costumes/actions etc. to represent the social groups seen in our opening sequence.

The 'teen bully' character's costume is very normal for a teenage girl. By wearing jeans, a simple top, and a cardigan, she does not stand out from the crowd which is important for the narrative of the opening sequence. Using her mobile phone as a prop to enable the audience to understand that her phone is an important aspect of her character.

The 'urban teen' is also wearing a costume to suit his particular character. he is wearing tracksuit bottoms and a baggy jumper to resemble his attitude toward appearance. He does not care what people think of him but want people to know he is comfortable in his surroundings, (hence the posture when sat on the step)

The businessman again is very commonly dressed for a corporate employee. He is wearing a suit. He would stand out from others in public for being quite formally dressed, however this resembles his position in society. It also resembles what he believes to be his position in society: superior.

The popular teen is mainly resembled through her actions. She walks with a tall gait which shows her to believe she is also superior to most in society. Her high heels amplify this concept.
