Representation of Torchwood: Notes

Mise en Scene:
- All of the characters are dressed formally, plus one of the main characters is homosexual and also part of the royal navy, which wouldn't be accepted during that time era.
- The way the lighting turns into a bright white light at the end of the clip acts as a metaphor. The way it acts like the bright light people experience before going to heaven, the ending of there life, in this clip representing the ending of their love. It being over forever...
- The crisp facial expressions show the feeling of freedom when they're with each other.
- The setting is formal and almost inappropriate for anyone to show affection towards each other let alone a gay couple, adding to the show factor of a homosexual couple.
- The bright machinery used at the start of the clip gives the impression that it doesn't correspond to the time era. Also giving the impression that the genre of the clip is sci-fi.
