Page 2: Representations of characters

COSTUMES: BULLET BOY

Ricky the main character wears a grey tracksuit which tends to

give the impression that he is quite chavy, and also he wears a

gold chain which also implicates some sort of ‘chav look’ about

him.

The friend of Ricky's also wears a lot of jewellery starting with him

having his ears pierced and also a gold chain. This, like Ricky,

gives off the same impression. Which is also stereotypical

Page 3: Representations of characters

COSTUMES:

He wears his own type of suit with his traditional colours and

patterns to his community telling us that he is already not from the

uk. And the clothes are quite sloppy and chilled in comparison to

the other businessmen

Buisness men seem quite classy and wealthy with actual

suits which are expensive, hence giving them wealth

Page 4: Representations of characters

PROPS:

This is an old run down car showing that he does not have

wealth, due to him not having an amazing up- to- date

car, so therefore tells us he doesn’t have much money

again.

He has a cigarette which shows he does not care about his

health, yet we see he does not have enough money to

afford this habit due to his lighter not working.

PROPS:

The cross shows how they are religious and believe in god in the

uk still and are quite holy people, yet are illegal immigrants

The fake identities and names show how they are illegal immigrants

working by using different names and therefore are breaking the

law in order to gain money

Page 6: Representations of characters

SETTING:This shows him in a police cell in jail which tells us he has

previously been convicted of going against the law in

some sort of way which allows us to see he is a rule breaker

In the middle of no where which shows isolation in

comparison to a cell almost like binary oppositions

which shows loneliness

Page 7: Representations of characters

SETTING:

In the illegal cab shop which is showing how that community have set

up this illegal service in order to provide money… making us think the

characters have moved country in order for a better life

In the airport it shows how okwe is trying to offer services in

all kinds of locations showing his desperation for money

MAKEUP:

• There is no makeup … but by him being of black colour in a prison with white officers shows how it is stereotype that the black people are the ones to commit the crime instead of us whites

Page 9: Representations of characters

MAKEUP

Shows the separation of blacks and white because hey have all set up their

own business showing how they stick together but also shows isolation from

the majority colour in the country which shows the separation between

them.
