1. How Does your media
Product represent
particular social groups?

2. Representation of Age
The main connotations
of teenagers are:
Criminal
Drugs, Alcohol& sex
Gangs
The main character is is a teenager
aged 16-19.
This will appeal to mostly male
teenagers around this age group as
they can relate to the character.

3. Representations..
The main character is a male. This is represented in a
stereotypical way as most leading characters in thrillers
are male.
He is represented as a working class male. This is also
represented in a stereotypical way as he is young and
black. He wears hoodies and baggy jeans with trainers. This
also represents age.
His character can be juxtaposed with the leading female
character ,Miss layla who he is trying to kill. She is a middle
class teacher. This is common in thrillers, low life working
class people obsessed with middle class people with
intentions of killing them.
We chose to represent a stereotype rather than challenge
it due to high crimes especially from young black males.

4. I chose to compare my
character from the main
character from adulthood.
They both have similar
representations of young
males.
They are both males, both
go to college and are both
black. They have similar
fashion tastes as they both
wear hoodies and trainers.
Both have weapons that are
going to use to commit murder.
(knife, baseball bat)
Overall this character best suits
my character as he has similar
elements of representing a black
youth.
