How does your media product represent particular social groups?



In new town killers Sean is chased by two bankers who are trying to kill him. I chose to compare Sean to Jason because I think there are a lot of similarities, although Sean and Jason have completely different reasons for being in the situation they are in, for example in new town killers Sean does some street running, we also tried to include this in our film.
They are also similarly dressed. We chose to dress Jason in jeans and a jumper so he could fit in more to his surrounding; he isn’t working for the organisation anymore so we decided there was no need for him to wear a suit.
I think they are both streetwise and this come across in the opening to minutes if the film, Sean live on a rough counsel estate whereas Jason was part of a group of assassins I think the character prove they can look after themselves.
The major difference in the films, I think, are the Jason knows how to kill and escape difficult situations whereas Sean hasn’t been taught that.
