How does your media product represent particular social groups?




The social group this film represents is the innocent drug-user victims of the criminal underworld. This social group have been represented in my film as bumbling morons who are clueless of the real danger they are in. This can easily be referenced to the main two protagonists from Pineapple Express (See second image) who are also characterised in the same way.
Mise-en scene was used in my sequence in such a way that it made the audience question the reality or truth about the lives of the drug users. Whether they actually lived in the house they were in or if they were ever in danger. This was created with the use of the setting and props. The costumes were used to show that they don’t really look after themselves very well and they are slobs.
