How does your media product represent particular social groups?
The video we have made mainly represents the urban teenage social group. Mainly males as the video is predominantly male actors and the story line is based upon males and situation that they are often found in during the course of the storyline. The video goes into detail about a week in the life of a teenager in a tough urban environment and problems that arise to do with various troubles in an urban environment. Also shows the outcomes and how bad some of these situations are for your life, so we have tried to outline some of the harsh realities in urban teenage life. It responds to the repeated critical outlook the media gives out about teenagers behaving in an urban environment across Britain and our sequence, similar to Shifty, Adulthood and Kidulthood etc. shows what it is like coping in this environment. Hopefully it can provide the audience with interest to what would happen if the sequence was made evn further into a film.

In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
The genre of our film is urban social realism similar to films such as Adulthood and Shifty, our film deals with issues in urban teenage life (just like Adulthood and Shifty). However our film is different to these films in certain ways. Our film is based upon a younger characters life which is not the case in other films of this genre. We use point of view shots similar to these films in certain such as chase scenes for the audience to feel that they are the character. Their is also various fight scenes that are in both our media product and theirs with various shots to get an idea of what it is like in an actual urban environment, which is the impression we aim to give out, similar to the other media products

What kind of media institution would distribute your media product and why?
There are a number of companies that would produce and distribute our film, there are certain company’s that specialise in putting money into low budget films. Companies like Independent and Limelight who produced and distributed adulthood or also BBC Films and Metrodome Distribution who did the same for Shifty. These films are similar to our film and are of the same genre, the companies that I have listed have helped these films and have helped other films of the same genre so they may be interested in distributing and producing are film. Our Film could appeal to these companies because of its independance and the audience across Britain which can relate to the film or even realise the difficulty some people go through.
