Representation is based on the interpretation of information; the interpretation can be formed from one's background and experiences. Bad representations can have a 'snowball effect' and get bigger and bigger and result into a moral panic. This means that representation can often be a biased view which often occurs in the media with young males. In our film our main characters represent young working class males. Although they had bad habits, they are shown not to be heartless unlike the media portrays. This goes beyond the steroetype and shows more depth in a character and shows them to be more human than the media portrays.
