Waterloo Road - Case Study [AGE]

In this episode of Waterloo Road, teenagers are shown in a very negative way. To start off with, there are kids on the playground throwing around another kids bag whilst he tries to get it back, this is bullying, and from this you straight away get a negative representation of teenagers. Then the scene goes to the toilets, I high angle shot over the cubicles, and the cubicles have lots of writing and vandalism on them, the camera looks down on the two girls doing drugs and talking about getting 'baked' this camera shot was chosen for the reason as almost as if you're looking down on them, they're very foolish and weak, giving a negative representation.
