Evaluation Q2: How does your media product represent particular social groups?

Some of the similarities between our main charater and the one which is in another film (shank) is the type of costume that they both wear. both these charater wear clothes that are typical used to represent the streets like hoodies,trainers and baggy clothes.This also links in to the apprence of those charathers because the charaters are dressed in this way to provge a certain reaction from people which is fear they do this because it gives more power.

Another similarity between both of these charathers are the types of roles that they play within the films. both of these charather play the main role in the film which means that the story therefore revoles around them.
It is an important convention that the main charaters in a film from this genre are usually strong and tough even though they are bad at the beginining of the film they usually end up being the hero at the end  of the film. However we have tried to challenge this covention by having our main charater have a higher authority over them (the police) so that he is not represented at really though and stronge.Although their are some conventions that we have stuck to like the convention that someone always has to die at the end of the film.We have done this by having the main charater die at the end which can be a common convention used in this type of genre of film.
