Representation

 The representation of gangsters in the film is pretty much the same for most productions. They're seen as psychotic, violent, abusive, and guilty of committing heinous acts, but they get away with it every time. I'm going, to be honest; my production encompasses a lot of these traits. Not fully though, I intend to incorporate things not typically in use for gangster genre films.

To put things into context, here's a picture that displays some classic representations of gangsters in media. 

I'm definitely keeping the overuse of Cigarettes and the clothing, hair, and aesthetics. One thing I am changing though is the characterization of the characters themselves. In many gangster films, the main character or supporting characters are often seen as psychotic or mentally deranged in some way. Draco isn't like that, pretty sure most audiences will understand where he's coming from and can infer the reasoning for his reactions and general disparities.  I don't really know what type of character I would compare Draco to, as there isn't too much complexity displayed in this short film due to the run time. 

All in All, I am putting many of the stereotypes in place, the representation is pretty similar to what audiences are used to seeing in the gangster genre. I'm just aiming for a little higher sense of dramedy element as well as humane characterization.
