Consideration of representation and stereotyping

Stereotyping:

We used a lot of male stereotyping throught out our film. The main male stereotypes are that they like a fighting scene e.g punching, a chase scene, violence e.g guns, knives etc and some sort of romance. we had most of these in our film except romance. Examples or what we used were that Me and Ed had a punch scene. This will excite the male audience as it it converting  their typical stereotypes and that males always want to see a winner and someone being beaten up or killed. We also had a chase scene. This once again will excite the male audience as they love having fast scenes e.g. in James Bond their is constantly fast scenes. Also males love to be the hero and so they can see themselves chasing after the villian and saving the day. We didnt use romance as we believed that our film is mainly aimed at a male audience as romance is converting the typical female stereotypes and so it wasnt needed.


Representation:

Ryan (Villian): Ryan is dressed in normal clothes as he wants to be able to blend in with the people around him. this will keep im undercover and out of sight of anyone noticing anything suspicious. He has a briefcase to suggest that he doesnt want to give anyhthing way which means he might be quite a secretive person.

Ed (Dealer) : Ed is dressed in normal clothes just like Ryan and once again he is trying to blend in with others but be quite secretive as a big deal is taking place and he doesnt want to be seen as part of it. He wore his hoodie up to make sure that anyone overlooking does not see his face.

Aaron (Hero) : Aaron is dreesed in a smart suit so it already gives us and the audience the idea that he will play a big part in the movie and that he must have a good profession being that smartly dressed. He does not blend in as much as not many people would wear a suit without a good reason e.g. they could be going to work or meeting but we just see Aaron walking down an alleyway following Ryan which could make people suspicious.
