In this title sequence, Lama is a teenager that is
getting ready to go out with her friends. In films, teenagers are usually
represented in a negative way. They are rebellious; they are always going out
to party, always drinking, smoking and being destructive. Teenagers don’t look
smart or formal in films; they dress inappropriately, which means they are not
presentable. Therefore, this gives an impression to the audience that they are
not important or respected members of society; they just live for the weekend
and couldn’t care less about anyone else. Teenagers are usually stereotyped by their
appearance, gender and personality. They are often being shown as being a
problem to society, for example, controlling, rude and disrespectful.
However at times, recent films have been showing how
teenagers are very supportive of each other. This tells the audience that teenagers
aren’t entirely bad and they can be responsible at times. Personally, I think
the majority of media types present an inaccurate and negative portrayal of
teenagers according to their appearance and among many other things. This is
because some of their characters and dilemmas are not realistic.
