Mest 3 Text Analysis - Eastenders E20


The third text that i have decided to focus on, in terms of my case study that is focused on representation is eastenders e20.
EastEnders: E20 is a British Internet soap opera, which began airing on 8 January 2010. A spin-off from the established BBC soap EastEnders, it is set in EastEnders' regular setting of Albert  Square, a Victorian square in the fictional borough of Walford, in the East End of London. Each series follows a group of teenage characters.
 EastEnders: E20 is filmed on the same set as EastEnders, using three handheld cameras to give it a more "edgy" feel compared to EastEnders, which is filmed with cameras on tripods.
Each series features new teenage characters who move to Walford, as well as cameos from existing characters from the main show. The characters are described as sixth form students trying to escape from "family problems and crises of their own making".

Eastenders E20 represents race in the modern era, in the latest series 2 out of the 3 main characters are black, the audince interprets them as young teenagers tryin to fnd their way in a not to sophisticated area such as watford. The target audince is preferably teenagers, but adults can  be considered as an inviolved audience also.
