Location Planning

A short presentation stating and explaining the chosen location of my horror film.

Where?My chosen location is part of the Canford Heath Nature Reserve. There is an area of pine wood with a hill somewhat creating a half-bowl shape. This creates an ideal setting as the audience will not try to see what is in the background. There are many different angles available to give the appropriate shots. This area is far enough away from the road that the sound of cars shouldn’t be an issue.

Others?This sort of environment fits with the settings of other films. Therefore, it follows the appropriate codes and conventions and so is consistent with the industry.

The Forest

The Blair Witch Project

At Night?This was some experimentation with different light positions to see how is the best way to illuminate it. With a series of different lights, I think that I will be able to sufficiently show the characters.
