Skins!

Skins starts off by showing the daily ritual that Tony Stonem goes through each morning, the first scene starts with Tony lying in bed with an extreme close up of his eyes as they sharply snap open following his alarm. It zooms out showing a close up of his face. The camera zooms out to a long shot where we see his room which goes against the teenage stereotype of messy, especially for a boy because it very orderly and tidy. It also shows his duvet which he is lying smack bang in the middle of, its design is a naked man and woman this could be subtle reference to his sexuality as he may not know if hes straight or gay.

Numerous jump shots are then utilised as it shows daily routine of excericse which is extremely regimented indicating that is an often repeated task. Another alarm then goes off at this point he goes to his window and looks at his female neighbour who is getting dressed. His remains in this position even though his neighbour notices him which cements the fact he is probably straight because of how obvious it is, it also shows he is a bit perverse and voyeuristic.

Tony then helps his younger sister, Effy, sneak back into house showing that they have a strong relationship. He creates a diversion by turning his music up really loud and his dad is angered by it and says “every fucking morning” which implies Effy is often out all night.
