EVALUATION: Question 2

Q2. How does your media product represent particular social groups?

In the photobucket slide, the images represent a stereotypical image or representation of women. The images shows that woman are undermined by the dominated male species and are always at constant battle for rights. Our thriller opening shows that the agent is self-driven and she too has to cope with a lot which is the same to many other women.

The social groups in our film is gender and regional identity. Gender is portrayed in both positive and negative way. Its negative as men look down at women and are more dominating, however its also positive as women are portrayed as strong and confident. 

Regional identity is also positive as women are working, wearing smart clothing and the fact that they are in the city shows that they are smart and capable of working. 

In our film we contradict the stereotypical image of women, as we represent women as dominating and able. We show them as being a women of action during the bag swapping scene and also in the office scene when the main character is circling an image of the suspect. Our film shows that it is a women controlling the action meaning the entire film
 which shows that they are controlling the plot of the film. This undermines the power of the dominant male as it shows that a women is in charge and is the main character of the film.
