Message we are trying to give the audience

# data[].attributes.body
The message that we are trying to give out to our target audience is that bad things happen to everyone and not just a particular group, ethnicity, race or stereotype. We are trying to send out this message as we think that the audience being able to relate to our film is a very important part in the exhibition of our film. We think that by making our film very relatable, our audience will enjoy it more as they will feel as if they can connect with it in some sort of way, even if it's not the same way that someone else is connecting with it.

In our thriller, the parts which are shown in the present day are played with a female protagonist which goes against the stereotype that men are usually the hero/protagonist. We did this as we think that our thriller is very unique to a lot of the thriller films that are about now and we wanted it to stand out even more by not portraying the 'normal' male protagonist.

Me and Laura were influenced by making our protagonist a female from films such as the Hunger games series where Katniss Everdeen is the protagonist.

The language used by the dad when he is telling the girl off is quite northern, using northern slag to express this. This could be seen as being a lower class family rather than a higher class which will speak with more formal and elaborate manner.

The locations in our thriller opening were also of a lower class to show that our filmily in the thriller are just average people. The use of the graveyard however is supposed to show the presence of death and how there is a dark side to it, even though they live in what seems to be like an average village. We used short clips and photos (these appear on the screen very quickly) of the graveyard to show that the darkness in our narrative is hidden from particular people (for example it was hidden from the teenage girl) but she still manages to find out the truth.

In our media product, ‘What Can’t Speak Can’t Lie’, we tried to represent different generations, and therefore, different social groups. Firstly we have the teenage girl, she is wearing typical 21st century clothes and she also has a stereotypical teenage attitude, shown when she is being told off by her dad in the beginning for being messy, and she ends up storming out of the house to go live with her grandma.

Another social group we try to represent in our thriller is the older generation, we do this through various clips in the titles representing the war which shows the audience that that is the era in which the film is based. We also show clips in the actual film opening of the stereotypical, sweet grandma figure, dressed with a cardigan and a knee length skirt, as she opens the door we see some of her old belongings also representing the older generation through various old books and decor, this is where the secret hidden document revealing the Granddad is found, this document will be very important in the film, we show this through repeated viewings showing her finding it. This will change the viewer’s perceptions of the older generation being completely innocent and we show this by leaving the introduction on a cliff hanger, making the viewers want to watch the whole film. We wanted the Grandma to seem like a stereotypical Grandma to heighten the drama of when the girl finds the old article in her attic, this is about her 'War Hero' Grandad who is not what she thinks he is by what she's been told. This heightens the drama as it wouldn't be expected for a 'normal' old woman to have a dark secret about her ex-husband and to not tell people.

We used the images of war to foreshadow that the film will be flashbacking to when her granddad was in the war which again is a different social group because in those times people lived a lot differently than they do today.
