How does your media product represent particular social groups?

Every media product aims at a particular target audience, so therefore media products include representitive aspects for social groups. The social groups are set with many different representations such as the age of the characters, ethnicity, costume or style.

The still above shows the character who is psychologically disturbed from our opening title sequence. A film 'Kidulthood' involves a character who is similar to ours. Both characters are wearing hooded jumper/jacket. The hood and the darkness in their clothes implies that they don't want to be seen, as this also imply the darkness of their lifestyle.
