Evaluation Question 2 Social Groups

By Sam Hardingham

> How does your media product represent particular social groups?

First of all, the killers social demographic is unknown to the viewer so that we do not know what background he is from. As he is a killer it might suggest that he possibly lived in poor conditions or had a hard life back at home. However, since his clothes are in good condition (no tears, rips or dirt on the clothes) it is plausible that the background of the character could be that he is of middle/working class and has run away from home or his parents passed away and this is his way of coping with it. His clothes are that of a stereotypical teenager, a big hoodie and dark slim fit jeans.

The Killers Clothes:


Before the audience can clearly make out that the killer is holding a knife, the dark jeans and creepy behaviour, could foresee that he isnt a normal teenager and that there is something sinister about his character. At the end of our opening sequence when you see the mid/ close up of the knife, it shows that it is a significant prop and the way it is held connotes death. The knife is also a significant prop, as it tells the audience what the movie will be about and what the dilemma will be in the movie.


The Killers Props:

The way that he is stereotypically dressed and given his obvious gender, it portrays the teenage community as always hiding something or that they are dangerous. This plays to the typical view about teenagers who wear big hoodies that cover their face or that are being mysterious because it appears as though they are going to harm the general public.


The Killers Age and Gender:

His location is isolated and appears as if everyone has left the village. This also implies that there might have been a murder as he is the only one there and hes holding a knife. The loneliness of the character implies that he is by himself and is working solo, which could show rebellion against authority, which is another perceived aspect of a typical teenager.
