2.) HOW DOES YOUR MEDIA PROJECT REPRESENT PARTICULAR SOCIAL GROUPS? My character and the film opening represent the suppressed, the strong and the courageous. The social groups this fall into may not be conventional but the characters in my film fill these traits. The character in the past, Connor is a Native American during the civil war. His people and his kind are suppressed and not treated equally. Connor fights for the patriots and for peace, hoping to free his people. However he is also an assassin, a character who is strong and secretive, someone who will stay in the shadows, and uses his skills to free his people then this again is a social group, one would argue that the assassins are a social group, ones that fight for peace and to kill the Templers who fight for knowledge and control. in many ways these are like the rich and poor social group, the rich being the Templar’s who have greater control and the Assassins, who are like the poor group and will do anything to stay in the game.

My character and the film opening represent the suppressed, the strong and the courageous. The social groups this fall into may not be conventional but the characters in my film fill these traits. The character in the past, Connor is a Native American during the civil war. His people and his kind are suppressed and not treated equally. Connor fights for the patriots and for peace, hoping to free his people. However he is also an assassin, a character who is strong and secretive, someone who will stay in the shadows, and uses his skills to free his people then this again is a social group, one would argue that the assassins are a social group, ones that fight for peace and to kill the Templers who fight for knowledge and control. in many ways these are like the rich and poor social group, the rich being the Templar’s who have greater control and the Assassins, who are like the poor group and will do anything to stay in the game.

They would do things like find the Orb to give an edge on the battle. In the future there is similar character to Connor his descendant fights for the same things. Peace and freedom for the people. In the future the Templar’s have full control so it is again like the rich and poor social groups. Three assassins are now shattered with no hope of survival and they stay hidden because at this time all out war is not an option. There are not other representations of social groups in my opening or the film, there genders are equal the female characters are just as skilled as the male ones. The age of the characters is not concentrated on nor is the disability. The only other social group that is represented on quite a bit relates back o the past. With Connor, a Native American fighting for his people. Because Native Americans were not white in that time thy were not considered equal, and because they were not treated fairly and had their homes and land taken from them, this gives Connor a reason to fight.
