How does your media product represent particular social group?
In my film, the main protagonists are middle-aged people. The working girl is 29 years old and the boy is over 30.I also have an aged woman as the shopkeeper in my film as mostly aged people are the ones who work at charity shops. I have chosen this age-group because I wanted to focus on a different age-group other than teenagers. I have chosen a white girl and a mixed raced boy. This makes my film look more realistic because nowadays all ethnicities are equal and people now are not too racist. The boy is a manager at a restaurant therefore he is dressed up in a simple long coat and comes across as little strict. The girl is working at a newspaper industry thus she is always interested in books and reading.
Few of the shots are put in deliberately so the audience can see clearly what is being portrayed. I have used a long shot when the girl and boy first meet. This shot shows that both of them and the audience can see that they both belong to different ethnicities and come from different background but still love makes its way to unite lovers. The main message is about love and people connecting despite having different background and nationality. In this shot, the music gets slower and we can hear their dialogues more. This makes the audience focus more on what they are saying and also this gives more importance to the characters.
