Evaluation Question 2

"How would your media product represent particular social groups"


First of all our opening sequence is about two twins who are very different to each other. Ones a goth and ones a girly girl. They both live very different lives and both are part of very different social groups. We have tried to achieve this by putting are two main characters in very contrasting costume to represent their personalties and also to show popularity at school and friends we showed the characters friends they hang out with. A big influence from our film was "Mean Girls". which is all about different social groups, personalties and how different people get seen and treated.


This shows some of the social groups in our film that are similar to mean girls. The Gothic twin Erica is very quite and shy and only has a few friends. Similar to Janice From Mean Girls.


To show how different the two twins are and their social groups, unlike above we showed Tiffany the other twin with a big group of friends to show she is popular. We got this idea of Mean Girls as In Mean Girls Regina George is allot like Tiffany.


A key character from our opening sequence is the semitropical girly girl Tiffany. Tiffany is the first main character you see in our opening and attitude and presents shows how different she is to her twin.

Our group made sure that the character Tiffany was similar to characters in other films to get inspiration and ideas. A character we feel is allot like Tiffany is Regina George from Mean Girls.

Costume and appearance wise these two characters are very similar as they are both very into there looks. They both wear pink is well to show a typical girly girl. The role they both play are is well very similar as they are both meant to be very stuck up and arrogant characters who are quite artificial.


Another film that a character from our film and a character from another film are similar is Yasmin from The Bratz Movie. 
The two characters are similar because they again are both very girly and like to wear bright colours and are into fashion and looks. How ever the two characters roles are very different. Our character Tiffany is very big headed and selfish and treats people badly where as Yasmins Role is very generous, caring and likes to help her friends and family.
