How does your media product represent particular social groups?

How does your media product represent particular social groups?
our final media product represents the typical teenage, 18-22 year olds, as it includes the stereotypical gang members right at the very beginning. therefore this ties in with the fact that we are aiming our film to be for 15-30 year olds. we have clearly stated even just a few seconds into to the film that is represented that of a young gang as we have seen the first 5 characters that are all obviously around the age group of 18, without even realising it we have already associated these teens with gang violence and by the time we reach the next scene we are in the dark with loads of flashing lights which just reassures the audience that it is all set in an urban setting. this recognition between the two factors helps us to understand that the particular social group that is trying to be portrayed here is obviously that of a young teen age group that may get into trouble later in the film.
