Representations

Representation refers to the construction in any medium (especially the mass media) of aspects of ‘reality’ such as people, places, objects, events, cultural identities and other abstract concepts.Representation always involves 'the construction of reality'.
In our sequence we are going to make sure our clip is realistic as possible.
We are going to use stereotypical characters, one of which is a villain, and the other a victim. We are using these stereotypes because it is effective and it brings out the horror in our film as each horror film does include a villain. In this case the villain is a man, and the victim a teeange girl.
Gender also plays a big role Male are stereotypically known as being:

• Strong
• Rough
• Workaholic
• Rugged hunters
• Tough
• Aggressive
• In control
• Powerful

And a stereotypical woman would be conveyd as:

• Delicate
• Beautiful
• Housewife
• Blonde
• Loving
• Caring
• Innocent
• Multi-tasking

The villain in our film will be represented as dominant, and stereotypicaly all of what a villain should be. He would be dressed In black so this would convey darkness and evil within the character. However the girl in our sequence will be represented as a timid naive girl who needs protecting, she will be wearing dark and ripped clothes, this will represent the girl is danger. 

Representations in general is an important aspect in our sequence as well as in any other movie, it makes up the whole of a movie and gives the audience an image of what a certain character could turn put to be like.
