EVAULATION - How does your media product represent social Group?
In our thriller we have one actor representing dominant social group out there who tale medication for pain relief or something worst. As we only have one actor in our thriller it has been viewed by a middle aged man who seemed to target a younger social group to get rid of them. The Actor is a white male in his 30s so this targets older people who need medication to stay fit, healthy and sane.
He is dressed in a well off suit to show he is a middle/upper class man. He has himself quite high in the world looking down on lower classes in the world. His behavior and movement seem to be in a very anxious and stressed workaholic. Who needs a break from time to time, he moves with a sense of urgency which builds rising tension in our character and the thriller, by him getting more pumped up the audience start to as well. His voice would be more your own interpretation than anything else as you don’t hear him apart from a groan which indicate this man does a lot of thinking and keeps a lot to himself. His appearance is throughout the whole thriller and is panned all around him and has this circling motion which builds a lot of rising tension for the audience as the camera moves as he changes. He appears twice in the thriller once as a man of working than a man of thinking he is dieing and losing his mind.
We used a stereotype of a upper class man living in a grand house with lots of money and lots of objects from around the world. So we suggest that he is a very well off man who works hard. We did this because we wanted to show the richer man was not always get away with it you can’t buy your life getting back at the fat cats.
The shooting was a type of surveillance which showed it was all about him and the idea of being watched and the sick idea of picking off people of knowing what they do everyday and then planning out a act which could kill them. But with this the camera angles helped showed that he thought he was being watched as if he was watching himself and that he might be poisoning himself as he has two mind sets for example me myself and Irene fight each other personality while he is planning to kill his other personality without realizing he kills himself on the same road.
My intentions in constructing of the representation was to make an idea of surveillance and playing games I wanted the audience to be the social group being targeted so they are the manipulators trying to stop this man who this all evolves around on.
I could have challenged the representations by including a person or ethic type to see so it was more of a point of view and instead of generalizing the public social group and not one type.

EVALUTAION - In what way does your media production use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media productions
The point of our thriller is to mess with a man who Protagonist has multi personality disorder. Is working on secret government project cataloging undesirable social groups and ways to get rid of them. He uses a pill packet that suggests to our audience that even there naturally everyday medication can be tampered with as it is only stress relief pills not even prescription stuff. The sub genre we are working in is a Psychological thriller: In which (until the often violent resolution) the conflict between the main characters is mental and emotional, rather than physical. where much of the action is going on in the mind of the protagonists we have a antagonist we like planning mind game with UK government officials who are responsible for making the lists of undesirable racial groups to be removed its set in the future for a warning
Examples and influences of psychological thrillers are fight club and memento.
One thing from memento that I admired that the time lost its not in order he needs to and out what he is doing. Feels very uncomfortable as he is going through short term memory loss he keeps tattooing himself to keep memory but that is even messed up all about the mind. The interesting about fight club that he is obsessed with commercialisms that he is a consumer of society
