Ethnicity & Representation

The main characters in our film present different ethnicities to the target audience. By having a mixture of ethnicities among the characters,  it helps to present a more realistic atmosphere towards the audience because in our society today, especially in London, there are a wide range of different cultures. Deprieved areas usually have a strong presence of mixtures of different people of all colours and consists of estates that include crime and drugs. Deprieved areas are always looked at as the causes of crime by the public and by recent UK Governments and are the origins of teenage gang culture. It also relates to our target audience strongly because our film focuses on teenage gang culture strongly and the narrative will relate strongly to the target audience. Teenage gangs in the UK mostly consists of teenagers of all colours but most black and is one main factor which has lead our production company to have our main characters as mostly coloured people.
