uses highkey lighting to suggest an upbeat mood. this is often used in sicoms and comedies as you can see in this episode. High-key lighting is usually quite homogeneous and free from dark shadows.
The clothing used in this scene was from round the late 1980's, everyone wore normal casual clothing. Such as, polo shirts, normally fitted jeans pulled accurtly on the waist, buttoned shits, religious clothing and blazers etc. This positive style typer of clothing connotes that all the moods in the room are calm and friendly this connotes that this show always shows a theme of positivity and happiness. This is an excellent excellent example of contrast shown between Topboy as you can see in top boy shows clothing such as tracksuit bottoms, big puffer jackets, hooded tops, air forces etc. This type of clothing has a negative image to the audience and also it shows that T.V prgrammes are making the steriotype about black males being intimidating harder not to believe.
Most of the actors in this episode are black obviously due to the genre on the series, the actors from Desmond's show great contrast with their personalities compared to Toboy. As you can see all of the actors in the barbers are encouraging Desmond's son to go UNI and are willing to help him get in, this shows that everyone in that environment was hoping for the best for Desmond's son. Desmond's present black people as kind and welcoming people you can tell from the way everyone has positive vibes throughout, this shows great contrast compared to to Topboy due to the fact that the black males in Topboy are presented ans violent, angry and dangerous people. This connotes how the genereation of black males has changed over the years and has become a crucial topic around London. The new generation of black males have influenced other audiences to believe the stereotypes from the way black males are true from what they say see on T.V, this image that black males create for themselves on T.V makes it harder for black males in London to find jobs due to the reputation that created; sadly making them financially unstable.
The setting on the film was in Peckham which is based in South-east London. The setting of Desmond's is ironic because Peckham is a very dangerous and rough area with a high criminal rate. This connotes that Peckham was a more calm area at the times of 1994 when Desmond's first started, this shows that the new generation of black males have a more wild and angry state of mind. However not all black males are like this, there are many black males that are successful in London such as Trevor McDonald.
Desmonds used diegetic sound throughout. Youcan tell by the way the sound comes from the world of the episode we are watching. It includes dialogue by the characters in the scene or other sound that comes from a source we would naturally expect that sound to come from.
The episode starts off with various wide medium shots, the used medium shots due to the fact that there were many people in the room have a group conversation this is an excellent way to show that everyone is involved. The shot then shifts when Desmond's son enters the barbers to a over the shoulder shot in the angle of Desmond's perspective, the over the shoulder shot was used to show Desmond's son sons emotion; as you can see he had a serious emotion on his face this connoted that they were going speak about an important subject. The shot then changed to a medium range shot showing Desmond, his son and his wife, this medium shot to show the concerened emotion of Desmond and his wife towards his son; this shot make them look like a very close and loving family. Over the shoulder shots on from Desmonds perspective were shown various times. The next medium shot shown was represents the love and respect that Desmond and his son had for one another when it show Desmond offering his son a handshake and his son rejects the hand shake and gives his dad a hug with an apology. As you can see the younger generation on black males in London were brought up with respect for their peers and parents, this shows great contrast compared to round the times of Topboy, Topboy presents black males as people with no respect and no morals. Furthermore the episode showed various medium, wide range and close up shots throughout the rest of the episode
