2. How does your media product represent particular social groups?
Our media production mainly represented white teenagers living in cities. From the questionnaires we distributed before filming showed that characters aged 17-20 were the ideal age group for our target audience. However although the characters social representation is very limited the location enabled us to appeal to a wider audience. A large variety of people drink in pubs and live in the same urban environment that our film was set. Likewise the situation was not specific to age or colour, arguments occur between couples in all races and ages, and murder is certainly not limited to white eighteen year old males.
Despite the fact that the location and storyline could represent any type of social group the film itself was focused mainly on the younger generation. Public arguing is less common in older couples as they are more reserved in public areas.
