smart, business attire, this is in order to mimic the business
setting aesthetic that the show has.

canary wharf for the boardroom shots, it is actually filmed in a
set near west action.

shot types, for example for the
cinematic shots of canary wharf they
use a dron to capture a wide-angle top
down shot.
• Furthermore during the board
meetings, they use close ups in order
to capture the emotion of Lord sugar ,
his team and the contestants when
their performance is being critiqued or
commended

• The iconic, dramatic music that the apprentice uses is
supposed to convey anxiousness within the contestants, the
strings are supposed to make you feel uneasy in order to
convey how the contestants may be feeling at that current
moment , on the way to the board room.
5. Editing
• In order to maintain the high stakes, fast paced feel of the show,
there are mostly jump cuts between shots when in the action,
however there may be the occasional smooth cut during some
of the more cinemmatic shots of london, furthermore, in the
board room the camera will often zoom in on certain people to
convey importance and show they're the topic of discussion.
