How does your media product represent particular social groups?

My opening film sequence represents policemen in a negative light. It shows him as what seems to be a killer when policemen should enforce and follow the law. My film is could be seen as stereotypical and exaggerative of schizophrenics. My film may suggest that all people with schizophrenia do drastically bad things such as kill people, when in real life this is not true. If I had more people that we could have worked with to make my film then it would have been easier to steer away from the cliché of the dead girl. I would have liked to challenge the stereotype that females are weak and so are the victims with having the police officer as a woman and the victim a man.
