How does your media product represent gender?
with the representation of gender with most crime/gangster genre films you will usually see that characters to be full on men characters giving a full representation of how you would picture a male person that would be involved with crime as well as other sorts of violence, we wanted to show the sane sort of traditional role you would normally see for the character but also but a modern sort of look towards how we would show gender and how it is seen.
Extras:
Group of teenagers: the group of teenagers are shown to be hanging around with a large group of people which is usually what they are established as showing a modern representation of how teenagers are seen which isn't allays how they should be established, also the teenagers are shown to be in a always behind houses out of sight from other people, this could mean that they are causing trouble or planing to do something in that neighbourhood. it is also argued that they could be causing trouble not just cause there is a lot of then as well as they are all boys and it is established that a lard group of lads would cause trouble at any time.
Two girls: although thee two extras where're only in it for one shot the way they where shown was to be in a modern, as they walk past the characters checks the girls out looking them up as they walk past he slowly walks from behind them, the reason for this is girls are normally seen as an object and that is shown in the clip which we where trying to get at as the character is to be told to be a ladies man.
Main characters:
Vinnie: this hard tough characters is represented to the traditional representation of a male person, being shown as a male character he is shown to be violent at times, which could cause harm to others as well as the way he is speaking shows within deep voice of the character, Vinnie being a male character is shown to be the leader out of the group this could be represented that a male figure would normally show them selves as a head of a group, and Vinnie does this with his demanding attitude to others as well as how he can control the other character Tommy if he has to.
Tommy: The way this character is represented was that he is shown to have a modern representation to the other characters, with his flirty attitude to everything as well as the cockney accent, being male he is also shown to be a tough character but isn't useallly wanting to get involved with other people if he doesn't have to which is also a representation of a male character withing a group as you can always find outsiders of a group the quiet ones that would normally stand at the back but is talkative when it comes down to it.
