LOCATION NOTESBrownwonder Productions

OUR GROUP IDEAS

As a group, we first chose our locations to be a butcher shop and a bedroom. We filmed at the butcher shop twice but the footage wasn’t god enough and therefore we changed the location to a workshop and the school corridor.

We chose these location because of the large amount of space available and also because we thought the setting will be perfect for our two minute opening sequence.

THE BUTCHER SHOP

WORKSHOP

We believe that this location suited our plot very well and the decision to change locations was the right decisions. The mise-en-scene was perfect for the sequence as the room was filled with tools such as chisels, hammers and saws, representing danger; a convention of the genre thriller. The workshop is our main location and most of the movie is filmed in here. Also, the workshop was quite big which helps us show the isolation as there will only be two characters in the workshop.

Moreover, the walls are also plain which adds on to the lifeless look that the workshop gives

THE WORKSHOP

THE CORRIDOR The corridor is the first location used in the sequence

and it is a pivotal location as this is where Lucy gets kidnapped. We decided to use this corridor as it is quite narrow and the lighting was reasonably high resulting in the sequence being very visible. Also, the narrowness and the isolation of the corridor helps represent the ideas of fear and in overall portray the genre thriller.

THE CORRIDOR

OUR FINAL THOUGHTS

Overall we are very happy with our locations and also happy with the decision to change locations. We felt that the locations were perfect n size and also helped create the setting for a thriller film which was our aim to begin with. They were also highly accessible for all of us compared to our former locations and therefore was even more helpful.
