2 Evaluation: How our Media Product Represents Social Groups.

The main task to deal with in terms of representation within our film was angels against demons. Although we did not want the typical stereotypes of fluffy wings and redskin and pitchforks due to believing this could not be created without looking tacky we did believe that clear connotations of stereotypically good and bad representations of our characters. Through bright and pale colors for the angel and dark leather costumes and make-up for the demons. Editing the high-speed run over the angel and a demon also helped the representation of a powerful supernatural entity.

The same approach was taken with that of the location, obviously without a substantial budget the stereotypical heaven could not be presented and initial target market/audience/ genre research showed more ordinary every day locations within supernatural-thrillers as it is so in the end we worked with a garden of Eden like location to support the conventions of our sub-genre in order to represent our narrative added too with a high key filter through the audience tested Cinematic 1 to add to this purpose.

Specifically to our narrative, in which the demons are the more powerful in the opening scene, we also included a number of shots to represent this situation including the hand held running shots from both directions to represent the peril of the angel as well as low angel shots on the demons as shown bellow to set up the representation of the demons with more power.
