Evaluation Question 2

How does your Media Product present particular social groups?

 Our film primarily focuses one characters. The social class that this character falls into is social class E (1), this is because she is only a young child and would have no employment history, the little possessed girl suffering from depression, due to a loss of loved ones in her life (2). Similarly in the real film Paranormal Activity 4, which was one of our influences, the social class of the little boy  who is suppose to be possessed also falls under the same social category as the little girl in our production (3). The social class of our character matches the conventions of the stereotype, as can been seen through the use of costume, location and other uses of mise-en-scene. There are many representation of children in films, happy, sad, naughty, playful etc. We used a soundtrack over the top of our footage to give our character another representation, the soundtrack gives the girl a playful representation (4)
