2. The Clip 3. Light Within Sherlock In this scene Dr. John Watson meets Sherlock for thefirst time The laboratory is generally quite dim Except for the spot where Sherlock is working This may connote that Sherlock is the main character and must be given the most attention The lighting in some places is also blue Gives the feeling that the place is very futuristic. 4. Colour Within Sherlock The colour is very white and blue Used to suggest cleanliness and that the place is sterile-likewe expect a laboratory to look like The colour of the walls is also very dim grey. (This isdue to low amount of light) So therefore when the tools are light up and are starkwhite we can easily see them. Further enforcing the fact that Holmes and Watson are in alaboratory 5. Figure Movement WithinSherlock Sherlock movement centralise around his work stationthroughout this clip Giving the impression that Sherlock is very focused on hiswork He also walks as if he is very detached (and insensitive likethe usual Sherlock.) Again showing that he is focused The only real movement by him is when he walks to receivethe phone or he is leaving. Watson stays on the other side of the room. This may be because Watson doesnt know Sherlock orWatson is emphasising that he has a bad leg and needs acane.(Mike stays by Watson because he isintroducing him to Sherlock) 6. Expression Within Sherlock During this clip Sherlocks face remains typically blank Focused or deep in thought? His face remains blank until John says he can use his phone atwhich point Sherlock seems slightly surprised Sherlock is not used to random acts of kindness, thereforemaybe implying that not many people care about him Watsons expression is a mix between amazement andannoyance He is amazed at the lab And Sherlock after he deduced that he fought in a war He is annoyed at being ordered around-showing that Watsondoesnt trust Sherlock and that he has Trust Issues () Mikes expression is rather amused- this may be because he enjoying seeing Watson being baffled or hes happy because he found Sherlock a flatmate 7. Props Within Sherlock Within the clip there was were only very few props. They were: The pipette used by Sherlock Johns mobile phone Johns walking caneMake-Up Within Sherlock There is no noticeable make-up within this scene. The only make-up is general stage make-up used to cover up blemishes etc.
