Skins Series 4

Skins was an extremely experimental drama, involving an extremely huge amount of social problems. Such as same sex relationships, friends cheating with friends partners, teenage sexual activity, drug intake, a huge amount of violence, and three way relationships. By doing this the show shows a huge amount of of close up to characters to show their facial expression, showing their emoutional, due to the amount of sadness and violence, anger in the show. The location of the show mainly takes place around Brighton, and in the college they attend, however they also go to other characters houses, and to verious house parties. The music from the show is mostly Indie music, witch i will give you links for below. The colours are always very bright and automatically attract the audience attention.

The Gossip - Standing In The Way Of Control
Girls - Lust For Life
The Temper Trap - Sweet Disposition

Naomily - Naomily is the story of Naomi and Emily. This is the story of too teenage girls experimenting with thier sexuality and become lesbians and eventually falling in love with each other. Skins presents this very well and however this story may not relate to to what myself and my group are doing for out Main Task, however the way it is portrayed and some certain shots during the clip to show the emoution of sadness and the sence of isolation and confusion. And however this does relate to our scene, due to our character feeling alone and isolated due to her being bullied and i believe by watching this we could also portray these emoutions in our opening sequence.
