Jade Delaney AS Foundation Portfolio Evaluation How does your media product present particular social groups? During our project we decided to follow the conventions of a chick flick. This is because we wanted our audience to understand our characters straight away and we wanted them to be able to relate to the individual characters. One thing that gave us inspiration is after watch the St. Trinian’s trailer. They had clear divisions between the different characters and followed the conventions of a chick flick. Another chick flick that we felt did this well was mean girls. This can be viewed via their trailer on YouTube but like St. Trinian’s its a key part in the film. http://www.youtu be.com/watch?v=6 YjSIvmNjT8 Clip from Mean Girls describes social groups within a school 0.26- 0.34
