How does you media product represent particular social group

Social Groups

They are a collection of people that share the same characteristics or traits, allowing them to be grouped together and to identify a representation of the set people.

Social groups we tried to achieve

Means is a prime example, that shows the division between representation within high schools. And it's clearly seen in the canteen, where the pupils comes together.

With the Character Samantha, we tried to show a person with the background of growing up in a community estate, that's affiliated with her dress sense and kind of persona.

Meanwhile with the other characters we intended to show that they have a social upbringing different from Samantha, evidently with the way they dress as well as behave.
