Evaluation Task 2: How does you product represent perticular social groups?




Our Thriller does represent different social groups. In our thriller we have three characters. Matt, mental ward worker, Adam, the van driver, and Mauricio, the escape patient. Matt and Adam represent the working class from there menial jobs. For example Adam has the appearance of someone from working class. He is dressed with a shirt, tie and a coat. The shirt and tie are part of his uniform for the Van service he works for. The Hat is of his own choice which symbolises would attire he would wear off duty as it look reasonably cheap and has a nike logo. The small glimpses of the van we see in our thriller shows that he drives a very straight forwards simple white van.









Matt also has the appearance of someone who is very stereotypical of the working class. We can see that he works in a mental ward and he is one the duty of pushing out a dead body. His tattoo sleeve on his left arm and his unshaven scruffy look also represents the working class look.









Mauricio is tall big dark male. His appearance is quite intimidating to the audience in our thriller. It is quite hard to talk about his class as we cannot depict a lot about him from the small glimpse we see of him. His appearance and act however does tell us a lot about his state. He is clearly mentally unwell, menacing and very aggressive.







Our thriller is ver male dominant as all our characters are men. Our thriller expresses a lot of violence and general male jobs. For example is would be unfitting to have a woman pushing the trolley dow the hall, because our in society maintenance handymen work is generally much better fitted to a man rather than woman because men are more physically build to these jobs than woman. It goes against, subverting the stereotypical role in society for a woman if a woman wore to carry out these jobs.
