Our film opening only has a limited number of characters in it, abut those it does have are represented equally, and pretty ordinarily. A female critic may say that the main female character Christy is representing weakness, however it could be argued that the figure that she sees in the warehouse is also female, and is a strong character.
Me a Tom made the following presentation to explain what each character represents.

In our film there is a lack of input from ethnic minorities which was not taken into consideration. However we do not have any offensive or racist language or actions. We did not feel this was a relevant issue during the making of our film. The characters (other than the hooded figure) are shown quite positively, however we do not know their backgrounds, or much about their personalities at this time.
Similarly to this, we did not feel that sexuality was relevant, however we were not offensive in any way throughout the film. The film is appropriate for a person of any sexuality. The characters are displayed in such a way that their sexuality is unknown.
Our film opening features characters in their late teens. The thriller we have made would probably be considered to be inappropriate for younger children, as they mind find it disturbing or scary. The teenagers, from the short opening, do seem to be normal stereotypical teens. I previously made a post in December about the various film certificates, and about the BBFC.
I consider the film to represent middle-working class people. Making them ordinary people means that more of the audience would be able to associate with the characters, making them feel more included in what is going on.
