Location Scouting

We are aiming to make our horror film as realistic as possible, so we avoided looking at stereotypically dangerous places, and instead took domestic areas, and will give them an unsafe feel when filming. We have taken pictures of the locations and where the characters will stand, camera angles etc. These include various rooms in Emmaline's house, a reasonably quiet, though not deserted road, scarcely used garages and an open alley. The photographs for the storyboard were taken during the day, but the film will be shot at night, adding to the atmosphere and highlighting relevant moods, details etc. We will write a consent letter confirming that we have permission to shoot in Emmaline's house, as it is important to use a natural domestic environment, as it will add to the theme of the movie, a place of safety- the home environment- becoming inhabited by the stalker figures.
On the group blog, their are a number of different photos that we took to show where we were going to be filming for out Horror Film.
As a group we all went out to see where the best places to film would be and we all decided that the following places would be ideal;
- Forest Area
-Derlict Garages
-Court Road
-Emmalines House
We took pictures and added them to the group blog on the 'Location Scouting' post. My personal contribution was explaining why we chose the areas we did and how they would be used in our film. I wrote up all the information on the 'Location Scouting' post, and then added the relevant pictures. We all however, contributed into creating that post, when we all went out to look for different filming locations.
