Task two

How does your media product represent particular social groups?
Our film opening represents different social groups from the beginning, this was important to do so people can relate to the characters and feel as if they have an understanding as to how they feel and this makes it more personal for the audience.

This also keeps the audience interested throughout the film. Focusing on the second main character(Emily)she plays a similar role to 'Kim' in 'Taken' and this is where we got our inspiration from to begin with, however our story like almost juxtaposes the plot of 'taken'. She is kept in a cage by her father and fed dog food, her father is the only person who knows about her apart from her mother who left them both whilst Isobella (Emily) was very young.

She is a very important character in our film opening. Kim is taken from her hotel room in France and is held captive as a slave for men, in our plot Emily is held captive by her father and this is the similarity between the two films. They are both around the same age also and this is important as many audiences are interested in this sort of plot and from this, we can tell that our audience is into this sort of character as they can relate to this age group well. Both of these characters are not able to get out of their situations alone and this is why the audience become interested in these characters. In the opening we are trying to capture the audiences attention by introducing a problem from the very start of the film, this is so the audience can figure out what is going on but also to make the audience want to know what will happen next.
