Question 2: How does your media product represent particular social groups?

We have represented a middle-class white British family with a stereotypical single mother figure and two teenage sons.
Kenny Lerone, played by Tom Brown.
He is Toby's identical twin brother.

Joyce Lerone, played by Finella Craig.
She is Toby's mum.









Toby Lerone, played by Ray Baker. He is the invisible protagonist.

REPRESENTATIONS OF THE FAMILY

The Outnumbered family - a middle-class white British family.



















We have chosen to stereotypically represent a non-nuclear middle-class white family. We have done this by using a classic mum character (see mind map below), and using two teenage boys. Also, we filmed in a Victorian house, typical of middle-class families in suburban London, which would be a typical place for the Lerone family to live.

REPRESENTATIONS OF THE EDGY MUM


Here is a mind map of the typical representations of edgy mums.

REPRESENTATIONS OF BOYS

JP and his friends from Fresh Meat. (Be aware that there is bad language in this clip).

JP is an example of a character that influenced us for Kenny's character. The clip is set in JP's old house that he grew up in, and shows the posh lifestyle he lives. There are many extravagant props they are using for everyday activities, such as using a sword to put jam on bread. JP's language is very posh, for example calling his mum "mummy", which is stereotypical of stuck up/posh teens in film and TV. We have sort of tried to replicate this character archetype with Kenny, as he calls his mum "mama", and generally acts quite narcissistic and stuck up.

 Viago's love story from What We Do In The Shadows.

We used Viago as an example of the soppy boy character trope, where he hopes for love and can never get it because of something outrageous. In this case, Viago is in love with a woman but cannot get it because his servant made a mistake. In our case, Toby wants love, but cannot get it because girls can't see him, and also he is a really wimpy character.

In our opening sequence we have represented two very different stereotypical male character types, one being posh, and one being pathetic.
