How does your media product

represent particular social groups?

Our thriller film represented a middle aged psychopathic group. This is very

common in thriller film and often when the movie is a psychological one it often

features a middle aged man. Feature and prop such as his car and the fact

that he is very neat and has an obsessive compulsive disorder are a common psychological thriller. The

protagonist often has a form of obsession which they often hide from the public by conveying a normal life.

Our character show normality by driving a nice car living in a nice house and

presented himself neatly. Character like this are very common in thriller. a great

example is the thriller classic psycho and the character Norman bates he is a

great representation of middle aged man and the way in which they are

portrayed in thriller movies.. In a way our character emulated this character

and show similar psychological traits.

We represented the social group using a lot of

psychological aspects. We ensure that the character express very little facial

expression and also has very dramatic mood changes. The

fact that he kidnapped a woman and didn’t seem to

show any remorse about his action. This very very common

amongst thriller protagonist especially the male. We also ensure that we presented his

mental issues clearly. First when opening the door he used and clothe showing his fear of

dirty and an obsession with neatness. Then when dressing up he dusted dirty of his suit.

These trait are what show that it is a physiological thriller. Obsession in thriller is most commonly associated with

middle aged men hence why

we included it in our thriller.
