Task 9...

In my class i have asked Balinder to be my blog buddy wooo.

Even tough Balinder is doing a different text to me both our films can relate in many different ways. Her study focuses on the representation of kids in Kidulthood and the way in which black youths are represented in society in Britain.

Therefore there are many areas which overlap in our studies. For example as she is looking at the represenation of black youths in socitey this can aslo relate to my text as there are many representations of the black youth which are being represenetd in negative way.

Many issues and debates are also raised in both our texts which are also similar in a way and overlap. For expample Balinder is aslo focusing on the represenation of the white ethnicity and what effect this has in the film. This also relates to my study as the white ethnicity can be viewd in a negative and positve way in the film Crash.

Many areas such as sterotyping and relevent theroies such as propp aslo relate to one another in our texts.

Ive learnt from Balinders blog about how films can exaggerate certain stereotypes in society and also how a british art house and american art house film can be linked to one another in many different ways.
