How does your media product represent particular social
groups?
As my film is based on
an average nerdy teenager, I have chosen to go down the path of quite a
stereotypical social group. This was not to hard to achieve with the costume,
as a simple band t-shirt and pair of ‘slacks’ gave the look of a character who
may not be considered socially ‘cool’, but still gives the audience confidence
that he is a good ‘hero’ for the film.
These are images of typical 'nerdy types' that are what the public stereotype them to be
I do think that my
brother (who I cast for the role of the films protagonist) gave an excellent
mid-ground between nerdy outcast, and hidden talent/reliable character.
