Representations of Age

 Representations of age

 

 

As part of our work for Section A of the exam, we were asked to analyse the representation of certain age groups in TV dramas and relate this to actual demographic information. We looked at the age range 20's to 30's. Although our thriller will focus on characters who are teenagers, it was useful to understand where representation of certain age groups come from, common stereotypes and countertypes and how audiences of certain ages are targeted by real media productions. This is useful for us in constructing the representation of our characters and considering our audience.

 

 

 



Screenplay for our opening thriller

Screenplay for our opening thriller - "In her mind"

As part of the preparation to filming our opening thriller we had to write a screenplay for it. Screenplays are effective ways of planning out what we are going to film, and therefore when it comes to filming it is easier as we already have a plan of what we are are going to shoot and the order it goes in.

Below are the pictures of the screenplays for our opening thriller.

As part of our planning for our opening thriller scene we had to pitch our ideas to our teacher and film it. Pitch videos are an effective way to plan out all your ideas and check with our teacher to see if everything is achievable.
