I used Prezi again to present my answer as i think its the most effective presentation method to use for evaluation questions.Its much more visually interesting than just a plain blog answer in my opinion.

I chose to do the question on PowToon because it a good way to present the information.You can also add a sound track because you can then upload it to YouTube .This also allows me to be able to embed the video into my blog as a post.

I am choosing to use slide share to present my answer to this question because it allows you to present lots of information effectively. The website allows a PowerPoint presentation to be put on my blog.

I decided to use Prezi for this question as i felt that it is a good way to present information easily and efficiently. Its more visually interesting than just seeing a block of text .

How does your media product represent particular social groups? The first social group the audience encounters is the representation of women. The  typical stereotype for women is that they don't go out to work and staying being a motherly figure. Also they are shown in the media as stereotypically weaker and more vulnerable than men. They are of a lower class. We chose to use this typical stereotype throughout our piece because it fits with our plot. Because the main theme of our thriller is stalking , it makes sense to have the woman as weak and vulnerable. It would be extremely unusual to have a man as the victim but i suppose this could make the product stand out . The way we created this representation is by having the girl on the floor this connotes weakness we helped exaggerate this factor by filming some shot from above to make her seem even smaller/weaker.

Before finding this soundtrack we were looking at stalker type music but it didn't seem to fit with the hum and the footage. We finally decided on this soundtrack because it works really well juxtaposing the mood/tone created in our opening sequence. Its a positive sound track that with the hum has an underlying dark mood created. The fact that some scenes are high key and some are low key help the soundtrack fit very well. Luckily it has a very effective ending to the track and we were able to position it so that its ended our sequence.
