Skins-Editing

Parallel editing is used to show that the boy and girl are related and have a strong relationship. We can see through the parallel editing that they lead very different teenage lives, showing binary opposite characters. She is coming home; rebelling against house rules and he has been in his own bed. This conforms to Levi Strauss' idea that all narratives have opposites. The two narrative threads come together as she reaches the window and the cut aways show that she relies on him to cover up for her. Following this we see  shot reverse shots and cuts between Tony and his sister, this has been used to emphasise how much she depends on Tony. This again plays on the stereotype that younger sisters relie on their older brothers to help them out.
The fast paced editing used to shown the protagnists  

Skins-Sound

The dialogue between the father and the son shows a reversal in audeince expectations. We see the father shouting and swearing at the teenager, which is normally something we would expect to hear from the teenager. The father's aggressive reaction to the diegetic rock music plays to the stereotype that teenagers play loud music and are inconsiderate to older people. His reaction also plays to the stereotype that teenagers frustrate their parents.
The diagetic sound of the alarm clock that is heard at the beginning of the clip is used to wake up the protagnist but we see that he is already awke, this both challenges and conforms to the steretypes of teenages. It conforms to the stereotype by suggesting that he his

Skins-Camera Angles

The idea that teenagers are curious about sex is reinforced through the over the shoulder shot used when he is looking at the older woman getting dressed through the window over the road. The shot is hand held so that the audience can have the same experience as the teenage main character. The following close up shot shows a lack of expression suggesting that this is routine and he has become disaffected by the image. This conforms to the stereotype that teenagers' lives are surrounded by sex and it plays a big part of their life.
The high and low angle shots have been used to portray the stereotypical view of the relationship between siblings that the sister relies on her brother. The high angle shot is used to show the protagonists younger sister and show that she is a child and is not mature enough to be going out all night, it also shows that she relies on her brother to help her out. The low angle shot is used to show that the protagonist has the power and the upper hand between the two characters and that he is the one in control of whether he helps her out or not.

Skins-Mise en scene

The mise en scene of the protagonists bedroom challenges and conforms to stereotypical views about youth culture. The establishing shot suggests that the series targets a teenage audience and it will follow the life and experiences of a teenager. The duvet cover shown is of a double bed with a naked man and woman, suggesting that this age group is sexually charged. The protagonist is positioned in the middle of the two bodies suggesting that he is sexually inexperienced. It could also be suggesting that he is alone and confused about his sexuality, which conforms to teenage stereotypes.In this shot natural lighting is used to give a sense of realism so the teenage audience identifies with the life of the protagonist.
This shot is followed by a series of shots that show the audience the remainder of the Tony's bedroom. It shows the bedroom in a clean and tidy state which suggests to the audience that he is controlling and organised, this challenges the stereotypical view of teenagers that they are messy and unorganised. This is also emphasized at the end of the clip where he gets his t-shirts out of his draw and we see them all neatly folded and colour coded. this suggests that he likes order and routine in his life. 
In contrast to the protagonist, his sister conforms to the stereotypical views of teenagers. She is shown with her make up smudge and wearing last nights clothes this suggests to the audience that she has been out all night and is sneaking back into home. This shows that the brother and sister are binary opposites and both lead completely different ways of life, she is rebellious and tries to act old than she is and he is responsible and doesn't fit in with the teenage stereotype unlike his sister.
