How does your product represent particular social groups

Under the age of 25 who is unemployed for 12 months will either be offered a new job or put into training.

The social group that is depicted throughout our production are are urban gangland youths, we conveyed this image to our audience through our use of mise-en-scene including their clothing which consisted mainly of hoodies, dark clothing and accessories such as bandannas. The top photo is a character shot from from our production and the bottom a photo taken from the times newspaper in an article related to gang culture, you can see that they are very similar as both figures are wearing dark hoodies and are against a street wall with similar postures this shows that we portrayed the social group the same way that the real media does we did this because this is the stereotypical representation of gang culture which is often shown in the media as it it is a pressing issue in Britain which allows our audience to engage with our characters.
