Question Two: How does your media product represent particular social groups?

In my media product are 2 main characters, a boy called: Oskar Schlüter

Oskar could be dicribed as an old teenager who is in a social lower class. At the first view he seems to be a nice guy with a good behaviour. He is a drug dealer who never rested. He is non-stop busy hangig on his phone to cell his drugs as soon as possible. He is celling his drugs for a bad amound to make more money. But if someone say that it is less he acts direct bugged and aggresive. He is an money maker and want only the profit.
He knows how to cell his drugs and how to handle his clientele while doing this.  Through his body language and his facial expressions you see that he is big-headed. He have also a  drug problem what makes him paranoid. On his style of dressing and behaviour you see that he is a chav. Oskar is an out-law and his own boss. He does what he pleases and if someone wants to stop him while doing this he or she (like in my movie) will be eliminated.


and a girl called Catherine Leo

Catherine is what film maker would call a underdog or throw-away character. That means that she is at some point important for the plot but not vital for the howl film. She could be discribed as a young woman with an obvious drug problem. She is wearing a costume which looks a bit low budget. She is wearing a jumper with the hood up. She seems to be not girly like through this she acts self confident and tough. Also her body language is selfconfident and reflects her strong character. Catherines facial expressions are those of anger and helplessness after she was ripped off by the unpredictable dealer.


Preliminary consideration for the costumes:
Before we started filming we tried to let us look like gangster.
Im wearing dark clothes.Oskar: A trainings-jacket, dark blue jeans and black shoes.
Catherine is wearting: a big jumper and keeps the hood on her head. We tried to represent both in a kind of hip-hop style. We represented the both teenager in a negative way to let our film look and sounds more realistic. The whole dialog is about drugs. We tried to let the acters (exspecialy my part) speak in a kind of  gangster tone. A other thing that helped us looking more gangster was that im walking with my hands in the pockets. Also little things like Catherine is walking behind me shows that the 2 actors are not close friends.The actors are not looking like normal teenagers we represent them like this:

Girl:
-not interested or bored
-self confident
-not girly like 
-rude

Boy:
-busy
-cool
-noughty or rude
-paranoid


Editing of music and sound :
To support this we choosed a music quite mysterious and fast. Also the sound of the match , the ringing of the phone,the footsteps when Catherine is running behind Oskar and at the end the noise of the punch are quite helfull to understand the mood of the situation.
