2. How does your media product represent particular social groups?

Our media product mainly represents different gender groups. The male characters in the interrogation scene are elevated, whereas the female character is seated. This makes her look inferior to them. We decided to have the victim as a female as it is in keeping with the traditional sterotype of a damsel in distress. We decided to have the hero as a male as traditionally, males are a symbol of strength and heroism. The taking of the female hand suggests that the male character is leading the way.
