How does your media product represent particular social groups?

My media product focuses on age, gender and Class. It also focuses on the upper class because the two main characters are from the upper class. this is shown through the where they live and the way they act. Roseanne is an 18 year old upper class citizen and we have shown this through what clothes she wears and the way she acts. They are both stereotypical characteristics of the upper class. She wears posh clothes and acts posh. She is also 18 and this shows the younger generation of the upper class, this shows the representation of age because Roseanne's Grandmother is the older generation of upper class and this shows the age difference of the way that they act and dress. The Grandmother in the film is the older generation of upper class and this is shown through the way she dresses and the way she acts.

In the film the femme fatal is the Grandmother because she is old and she is vulnerable. The detective in the film is Roseanne and this challenges the normal stereotype of the Neo Noir film genre because normally the detective is a man but in our film it is a woman. This is the unique part of our film is that the main character is an Upper class woman instead of an Upper class man.

I didn't really challenge the stereotypes in the film apart from the detective is a woman. This was because people like to watch stereotypical film and i did my research and this meant that i didn't challenge the stereotypes because i didn't want people to not watch the film.
