 Evaluation 2

Our social groups is teenagers, mainly college students that may be struggling identity,  our three characters are college students, that have demonstrated stereotypes,  Owen for example is on his way to his ITC and like a typical teenager, he is running late, a stereotype in our film is that teenagers are always on their phone, we portray this when Owen is on his phone to Josh. 

 

Cammy portrays how teenagers are always on social media and that teenagers become consumed by what they see online, and how easy it is to access pictures and information of people online , allowing people to make dangerous assumptions, we show this by using extreme close ups onto the computer screen. This is a teenage stereotype as many people assume that teenagers are irresponsible online, and that they are they cause of cyber bullying as they can anonymously harass others.

A horror film that uses teenage stereotypes is 'Friday the 13th', the stereotype in this film is teenagers up to no good, underage drinking and inappropriate behaviour, resulting in being killed a masked man with a knife, the knife links in with our film. 

Cammy portrayed a gothic like stereotype, we portray this by the use of mise en scene, she sits alone in the dark room whilst online, she wears dark clothes and lacks in facial emotion, an example of this is when she walks past the camera towards Owen and the close up of her on the laptop. 
'The Orphan' is another psychological horror, that has a young girls dressed in a gothic way, this adds to her characters mysteriousness.
