~Evaluation | How does your media product represent particular social groups?

Outlined role of this analysis:
Here i will talk about the people That appear in our production, this analysis will be split into 5 main areas of interest these are: Age, Ethnicity, Sexuality, Gender and physical ability.

Age:
In our production we tried to make the ages of our characters as realistic as possible, we made sure that the detectives are off a suitable age to there role, we decided that the two detective Dan Cash and David Stone will be aged between 25 to 35, we chose for the victim Jimmy Marley to be in his early 40's this is to tie in with his job as a Bank manager. The Murderer ( Dan Cash ) is aged in his mid to late 30's, we made sure that the ages of all of the characters fitted in with there jobs e.g. you wouldn't have an 18 year old bank manager you would expect the bank manager to be in the ages of 40-50.

Ethnicity:
Ethnicity plays a vital role in making the production as realistic as possible, For example the two detectives may be atheists or Christians as portrayed in most other detective dramas. We chose that the victim jimmy Marley the Bank manager may be deeply religious because stereotypically bank managers usually come from a rich and highly religious family. Murderer may also be atheist because he is used to killing and therefore doesn't need religion to get in the way. We set the detectives to be thorough-bred Englishmen as to correspond to the true factor of a true cockney cop, we wanted the bank manager to be a middle to higher class Englishman to fit as his role as the bank manager. The murder is Dan Cash so will again be from inner London, the mafia accomplice is English with an Italian background which links him with his mafia roots.

sexuality:

~ Update Of Filming~

This is during Production off the day scene, here you can see James holding the microphone and will practising his lines in the background

This is a mid shot taking during a set dialogue scene it shows some off the angles and shots that we are trying to produce.

This image shows me filming the scene and setting up the camera and positioning it to take the perfect shot

Will saying a short dialogue with the microphone just in view to the mid left side of the image.

 Image off the body in covering, this is the body that the two detectives uncover during the second scene.

This image shows us quickly going over our lines just before filming starts, it is key to get the lines perfectly right to add to the enigma and overall presentation of the production.

 This shot was taken during recording of the phone scene, it is taken in the recording studio.

this is another shot taking during recording off the phone scene, this is still taken in the recording studio.

~ Analysis of Shooting Schedule ~

Shooting schedule

This shooting schedule was put together with cooperation

of the whole group to allow us to put a time schedule together that everyone can work too, we did this because there where certain, days that some of the group wasn't available, we decided that is was

easiest to film on a Tuesday because we are all available at lunch and are all available after school.

We looked on the British film council website and looked through a document in
research of film categories and there audience, we couldn't find our
film category ( detective) on the website, so we went with a close
other which is a Thriller, we found that the category of people
that watched this category the most where 35+ females.
