Evaluation Activity 2.

In my opening scene for Release Date there is a representation of a particular social group. A social group are  people sharing some social relationThe social group in my film release date are young black youths, just like the social group in '1Day'.

Here we have Jayde from Release Date. Jayde's half brother is being released from jail and is expecting his little

half brother Jayde to pick him up and wants the £500,000 he's left with Jayde. Jayde is £3,000 short of the full amount and is pushed for time, Jayde is forced to return to his old life style he left behind in order to raise the money. One day follows flash's race against the clock as he's pursued by his girlfriend, who does not want him to go back into this cycle.

Here we have Flash from 1Day. Flash wakes up to a phone call from Angel announcing that he's being released and wants the £500,000 he's left Flash for safekeeping. Flash is £100,000 short of the full amount and is pushed for time, Flash is forced to strike a deal with Evil who more than lives up to his name. One day follows flash's race against the clock as he's pursued by a rival gang (The Zampa Boys), As Flash is part of OSC (Old Street Crew). He is also pressured by his three irate baby-mothers and his granny.

From the picture above, we can see that both the characters wear similar clothing. Both Flash and Jayde are wearing a hat and loosely fitted clothing, however Flash is wearing dark colours suggesting he is deeply involved in the crime life whereas Jayde is wearing neutral colours suggesting he is in between good and bad. In addition, both of their clothing represents the stereotypical views of what gang members look like.
