How does your media product represent particular social groups

We have four main characters within our two minute opening scene, one of those characters is the victim and is played by Iram Arbi another character is the killer and then there is the two detectives who are trying to solve this murder.
The killer has a negative representation as he is wearing all black and does not fully show his face, these characteristics show that he is a mysterious character and has been waiting for the victim to pass by. The detectives are the positive representation as they are the people who are trying to catch the killer and therefore are the opposite of the killer.

We have used a typical stereotype with the killer, a hooded stranger, most killers like to retain their identity so that they do not get caught.













Our detectives also have to typical stereotype of being dressed in smart wear and have and office block where they carry out the investigation. Above is a scene where the detective is at a desk, by doing this we are following the stereotype that many people expect when they are watchiinf films like this.
