Q2 representation

JAY








STONE










The first still is an image of 'Stone' representing the early youth steroetype of teenage boys in London. Some elements of Mise En Scene was used to portray this clearly to the audience. Examples such as his costume being based around the design of a 'Thug'; hoodies, tracksuits and baggy clothes, represents his Ghetto and mentally depressed character. His 'Stone' tatoo on his neck also shows that he is known by a nick name rather than his real name which therfore expresses his rebellious lifestyle. The character 'Stone' is similar to the chatacter 'Jay' in Adulthood. They both have similar lifestyles trapped within the 'Gutter'

The character 'Stone' is similar to the character 'Jay' in ‘Kidulthood’ and ‘Adulthood’. They both have similar lifestyles trapped within the 'Gutter'. Jay is known for playing urban, streetwise characters on stage and screens. He is an aggressive and tense character and also finds every way to get what he wants from any situation, even if this includes illegal activities. He also has a stereotype of a 'Thug' teenager in London that is most likely to have act against anti-social behaviour.

The second still is an image of 'Ebony' which is a typical stereotype of a girl from an upper-class rich background being interested in her education and family. She has a highly represented status compared to Stone and is able to handle almost every situation with her money. Ebony being a very passive and warm hearted girl is almost gullible to everything. Mise En Scene elements such as her designer Gucci bag and her sense of fashion shows that she is a young girl that doesn't really understand a world which is different from hers and therefore struggles to socialise with people that are not up to her standards.
