Scene character analysis

Eastenders clip - Phil and Max scare Ian

In this scene Phil and Max scare Ian by pretending to threaten him with a gun but instead its a car tool. the two sets of characters are represented in very different ways by the costumes they wear,there voices, editing and camera angles. Max and Phil are portrayed as the bad guys and bullies, whereas Ian is portrayed as a small, weak victim. Phil and Max are wearing black clothes and gloves which are associated with criminals and gives the veiwer negaative impressions on the characters. This is a contrast to Ian, who is wearing a light blue T-shirt which subconsiously suggests he is more feminine that the two other men. The camera angles that are used to film the scene emply representations of the characters, for example; when the camera is at Phil and Max its at a low angle which suggests that they are strong, powerful. But when the camera is on Ian its at a high angle to make him appear weak and insignificant.
