Ethnic stereotypes are still present in the media and have several implications for the ethnic and social groups included. Racial or ethnic stereotypes, which are the main topic in this research, are generalizations about an out-group. Literature suggests that television still plays an important role in reinforcing stereotypes and that the repeated depiction of cultural stereotypes in Television shows reinforces and validates the notion of "The Other". This is a nontraditional thesis that combines social research in ethnic stereotypes in TV and film with the creative process of film production. This paper contains the formal step of research, in addition to the details on the production and creation of five original short films related to the issue of ethnic representations.
