Board Meeting (9): Question two for Evaluation

How does your media product represent particular social groups?

- What are the social groups represented in terms of gender, age, class, race etc?

> male / female

> 16-17 year olds

> middle class

> white

> able bodied

> heterosexual

- Is gender represented in a stereotypical way?

> yes as it's the girl being followed by a man

> although it's the guy who's kidnaped not the girl

> however it's still a man who's attacking them which uses the dominance and aggressive stereotype of a man

- How does the link into the target audience?

> TA = 13 - 19 year olds, male and female

> shows a classic stereotype (girl being stalked) but also has enough divergence (boy being kidnapped) to be a subtle difference to usual thrillers
