Our film revolves around a black livelihood. The lacking in the diversity of the ethnicity was made up by the decision to play the film from a different social group. Straight away in the film, we apply an image of a chav by bringing our main character. In the making of that image, we’ve stereotyped many factors such as age, gender and ethnicity. However we understand the possibility of this offending certain people but we cannot forget that this could attract the film to a wider audience. We thought about avoiding too much stereotypical but felt that this could make the story loose its essence.
Age
- Young teenagers- Rude character, Ignorant and Arrogant
- Sense of danger felt by the audience straight away
- Costumes stereotyping the characters.
- The costume represents the image of how young teenagers are portrayed in the society
- Clothing streetwise emphasis hood lumps
- Baggy jeans, hoodies and straight peak hats
Ethnicity
- Black/Mixed Race/Arab
- Stereotypical views of how a black guy is treated, by this meaning that he is a criminal or a crooked character.
- Afro- Arab
- How life is tough for a black guy. Maybe relates to the way he is brought up?
- How it leads on to be careless about life and be mentally weak
Here are some of the pictures that were taken in process of shooting:
