2 How does your media product represent particular social groups?

How does your media product represent particular social groups?


Our film was based within a school environment with a vulnerable teacher (Mr Swanson) getting bullied by a hooligan inside the school premises. The stereotype of hooligans we have of society is often looks at lower-class minority of teenagers as low-class street hoodlums. This stereotype has been shown via the costume with the person wearing a hoodie running away from a teacher. 

We based our main character (Mr Swanson) as Daniel Chalky (teacher from Waterloo Road). The clothes they are both wearing are very similar, There both smartly dressed, glasses and greasy hair.

                                         Mr Chalky stars in Waterloo Road (played by Mark Benton)


Our target audience was mainly attracted to the ages between 18+. The reason why Alex and I decided that our target audience was aimed towards 18+ was because it  contained graphic images which people may find disturbing.
