Stereotypes throughout aren't exactly challenged at all in our opening and they are mostly negative towards the groups of people or areas they effect, for example, we chose to shoot in a rural area of which happens to be in Norfolk where the stereotype for the county is revolved around tractors and farming and thus doesn't help to challenge the stereotype. However as mentioned above, the teenage model is portrayed as a contrasting stereotype to the slow and lazy stereotype.

Males- Males are represented as susceptible as opposed to women because of our main characters clothing (mise-en-scene) and of-course through the plot, otherwise he would not have ended up in the barn. The spontaneity is also hinted through the characters clothes of a hoodie, jeans and trainers as these hint at a casual and spontaneous life style, also hinting at how Teenagers are portrayed and this is generally seen as a contrasting stereotype to the lazy and slow stereotype that teenagers often attached to their age group and gender.

Youth-

They are represented quite gullible through the plot as he followed and trusted the elder figure, of whom ended up torturing him. The laid back view is also presented here through the use of clothing and other identifies such as the teenage characters slow movement despite the seriousness to escape in time.

Location- Location clearly is represented by the shooting location and the plot because it is the mise-en-scene that also conveys this view of filth and poor maintenance in the farm area. The plot is half based around rural areas in Norfolk (see the vast area illustrated in map below and thus continues throughout to give a similair view and negative representation through the mise-en-scene and specific locations.

The location of our thriller was set on a farm in Norfolk, in an outback. The location was fairly filthy and wasn't taken much care of, mainly because it was just used for storage in recent years by the farmers. Therefore this can portray Norfolk to suit to it's stereotype of a lot of Farmers however not only this but it also reflects the Farmers themselves as being unclean and unorganised as people, not only with their work.

The barn being in a bad state suited us because it was rough and edgy, a place that would conform to previous film torture conventions, such as 007: Casino Royale's torture scene, as seen above.

The torture scene shows the location to be filthy and also the various props, such as the chair and barrels, therefore although their was no torture scenes featured in our opening, there would have been in the full length film and thus portrays Norfolks inhabitants and farmers as violent, again alike A Clockwork Orange.

In our opening the only gender visible is males characters, this shows that maybe Men are more susceptible to be in these kinds of situations, rather than females, hinting that males possibly are more spontaneous with their actions, even if it leads them to be put in awkward or bad situations. Almost immediately in our opening, we see that the son character attempts to escape, showing that males are possibly quicker to think on their feet, this is reflected in our thriller because almost immediately the character manages to find a way to escape from entrapment.

Males are also portrayed as strong in our opening, this is reflected in moments such as where the Son kicks down the door, as pictured and when he is able to escape with ease from being tied up, this is a stereotypical characteristic along with short temper, a lot of anxiety within and and personality traits such as being confident in their everyday life and this includes deciding choices.

An example of male's violent, strong and fast thinking characteristics would be areas from the film, A Clockwork Orange, not a traditional thriller however still conveys what I mean to show, see a clip below.

The main character of our thriller opening was the Son character, a young person, this was reflected in his characters costume design, this was mostly based on the teenage character, Donnie Darko, the image you can see shows Donnie in a grey hoodie and our character was also wearing clothes that are stereotypical to young people with jeans, hoodie and trainers. This is not representing the youth in a necessarily bad light but their clothes show fairly casual way of life and reflects themselves.

Other than clothes we also showed how prone teenagers are to trusting adult figures and how naive they can be, for example, in our story line, the Son character trusted the person who eventually turned on him and actually ended up torturing him.
