During Media as a class we have been studying Crime/Drama. For the past few weeks we have been watching a Crime/Drama related BBC film called Out of Control. Out of Control is a BBC film about four youths who find themselves in trouble whatever the circumstances are. The film focuses on how teenagers live everyday life in modern london. The youths in the film are persuaded to do all sorts of crime by there peers. Out of Control shows the viewers how youths are living in the uk, and shows the viewers the conseqences of doing crime.Out of Control is also very realistic, and is eye opening to those who realte to this film. Out of Control has a lot of realism for example how the characters speak is very similar to the way youths speak today(Slang, street talk). Overall I think that Out of Control is very realistic, and educational because it is teaching youths today what not to do, or how to go about certain situations relating to the film.
Out of Control is a Tv crime drama that we as a class have been watching. It has been really intersting to watch. The drama has educated us in a way because it shows us the real life situtions that we could face in the outside world. It also shows us how it is like in prison and the types of crimes we could go in for.Example of the conventions:
Guns
Knifes
Gangs
Drugs
Slang
Police
Money
Families

What I think about this tv crime drama?


I thought this tv crime drama is sending out a message to teenagers and those who are coming up to that age. I think the messge is warning the young ones not to get involved into drug related crime and theft etc.It teaches us about how hard it is living life in prison.How hard it is making friends in prison.
