How does your media product represent particular social groups?

'In-Mind Louis' represents middle to upper/middle class house-holds depicted from the mise en scene. It would be in a rural to rural/urban setting. So if it was set in America it would be a typical smart, short green grass neighbourhood like in 'Zathura: A Space Adventure' (2005) or if I'm thinking the UK, I take inspiration from Spielberg's 1992 'Hook" where the beginning is set in upper class London. I started off  with a younger audience in mind 8-15 year olds, but realising after my finished product that my targeted audience would be 10 to 20 years olds from the visual nature of In-Mind Louis. Also looking at social groups with age in mind.  'In-Mind Louis' appeared from the age of 'Louis' which is ten, to be based at primary school children who enjoy creative fiction stories, drawing etc... 'In-Mind Louis' is not particularly social grouped based though, as I am trying to promote the film with a classification of PG to a mainstream audience, where parents can bring the children to see the film & also enjoy it.
