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


My media project is aimed at teenagers and older, who enjoy horror movies and enjoy a good story line to draw them in. The reason for it being restricted to a certain age group is due to the graphic scenes that are portrayed, showing the acts of murderer and their life – also that they will be diving into the lives of the characters and what happened to them before the killing, the use of drugs and drink. This media project represents the younger generation experiencing life, but not worrying about the consequences when doing these antics. Therefore this is connoting that teenagers are irrespirable, this is a stereotype that teenagers only care about having a good time and don’t take responsibility for their acts. 

This is not specifically aimed at a particular social group, but there are many different sub-groups that can be connected with my film, for example it can be aimed to please people that enjoy horror movies, people that want a good story line as well as people that enjoy films with people of their own age group in. By doing this i didnt have to stick to a specific audience other than keeping my product a horror.
