Skins Essay

At the start, we see a extreme close up of Tonys face. This also shows his face with half it lit up and half dark which could signify that he is half fun and half trouble. The camera then zoom out to a birds eye view shot of an interesting mise-en-scene of a naked man and women. This fits in when with Stanley Halls 1904 argues that all teens are sex mad.

We then hear the diegetic sound of his alarm, however he is up before his alarm. This doesn't fit the stereotype of a teen because this isn't being lazy. When rising out of bed, we here diegetic music of hip hop. Which is a stereotype of Stanley Hall 1904 argument. He also poses in his mirror which stereotypes that he is hard nut.
     

We then see a medium long , high angle shot of a girl wearing a very short skirt walking towards the camera. She is walking in a very fast pace which could signify a sign of danger. The clothes that she is wearing is very revealing and shows she has been to a party and she is just getting back from it.

The next shot is a point of view over the shoulder shot of what tony is looking at. We see that he is looking at his neighbour undressing which fits in with Stanley Halls 1904 showing teens out sex driven. However it is not as if the neighbour is trying to hide herself away from him as she has her curtain wide open. Then we see Tonys face staring in which the camera then shows us what he's looking at again. When looking from Tony's view, the camera turns shaking which signifies that he could be nervous in what he's doing. However when its the point of view from the women, the camera is still and doesn't shake meaning that she doesn't care what she's doing and is confident.

The next significant scene is when he plays his music loud for his sister allowing her to enter the house. He wanted his father to come in and shout at him which is quite rebellious agreeing with Stanley Hall argument. However once the loud music stops he opens his draws to neatly folded t-shirts which disagrees with the typical teenage.

Tonys smoothness with the situation signifies that he has done all of this before.
When he is on the toilet, we see that he is reading a booked called 'nausea' which means he disagrees again with Stanley Halls Argument because it is a classic which wouldn't normally be put together with a teenager. Once beginning to think about leaving out the window, we see countless close ups of jobs that he is doing which stalls the time he leaves meaning his dad has to wait longer to go to the toilet.

Once out the window, we see the movement 1-2 from Tony to the neighbour. They are being very flirtatious towards each other. Still the camera shakes when its from Tonys POV but from the neighbours it still.
