skins

in the skins trailer teenagers are being represented in a negative way: i.e. as part lovers, promiscuous, violent, aggressive, drunks. druggies, riotous, loud, immature, destructive, ignorant, rude, disrespectful, obnoxious, energy, sexual, cheap/dirty and scrifty.

In the skins trailer, the representation are constructed by: music [loud + fast pace],
setting [pubs], costume, hair, action of the actors and the narrative content.

from my own point of view, i would say that these features represent teenagers in a negative way and not all teenagers are like that. so it is stereotypical and being exaggerated.
