Evaluation: Media product represents social groups

My media product represents particular social groups such as: Drug dealers and addicts, it also represents the youth, due to the fact that there is a lot of young people dealing drugs and taking them, this is a common representation of teenagers nowadays.

We have created this representation of drug dealers by showing the scenes of drugs people passed to each other from young looking people. Since the hoods up all the time for the drug dealer you can tell that he is trying to look discreet and hide his face. Having hoods up is also a common stereotype for 'chavs' since they usually have to them to look intimidating to everyone around them. This connotes to the drug dealers, because not only does he not want to be noticed he doesn't want people to bother him, therefore looking intimidating is the best thing for him to do.

The dark colours of clothing that the dealer and mostly everyone he deals to shows the theme of the film. It shows that its not going to be a very cheerful film but more of a dark and gloomy themed movie. The ares used for dealing the drugs show the diversity of people who he deals to. It goes from commonly dealing in an alleyway to in buildings and to people wearing suits. This shows that he is not just selling the drugs to one type of person.
