Evaluation Question 2

"How does your media product represent different social groups?"

The people that are in our text are criminal business men that are in their twenties and early thirties. They are not typical people of this age group as they rob banks, carry guns and kill people whereas things that people usually do in their twenties is attend university and spend a lot of time on their social lives doing such things as seeing friends and going out drinking.

You can see that the people in our film are not typical people of their age as Jacob, Matthew and Chris are wearing expensive designer suits and waving guns around in the street without a care in the world. From their behaviour in the opening two minutes you can tell that nothing bothers the characters. When Jacob meets Matthew and Chris they are stood on the pavement with their hands in the pockets of their expensive suits which show they have money, but with the combination of there cocky attitudes and obvious illegal activities the money they have has been obtained through criminal activities.

On the still shots in the movie when the titles of the characters are on screen there is a different genres of music which represent the different characters, for Jacob, Chris and Matthew the music is a higher tempo that Don Capallos as they are the people that do the action in the movie whereas Don is more of a background character so his music is of a lower tempo and more serious as he is is superior compared to the other characters.

Jacob Green is an aggressive driver, he speeds away causing type screaching from wheel spins, this is how the stereotypical yournger male driver drives so this shows that the crew are not as different as the usual twenty something year olds as they have some of the same traits as people who do not live the criminal life.
