Finding Filming Locations

Once we had decided on our plot we had to find locations where we could film to get the desired outcomes for our film.

 We decided that the first location in a living room should be in a realistic environment. We sampled two environments, the 6 form common room and Lara's Lounge. We settled on Lara's Lounge as it was more realistic and we would be able to control the surroundings, mainly noise level.

The second location needed was a dark alley, instantly we all agreed on an alley at the back of school as it is dingy and isolated and will serve its purpose well.

Our third location is a library; again we considered 2 locations, the dalo and the library. We finally decided the school library would be better as it is a quieter and more realistic environment.

Our fourth location is a male teenage bedroom, we eventually settled on using Lara's back room as it is spacious and basic and ideal for us to film in.

Our fifth location was a dance studio. For this we wanted to use the dance studio at Shirley High, however this was not available for us to use so we will be using the school gymnasium as it has a mirrored wall, which is slightly distorted to reinforce Sarah’s instability.

Our sixth location is a female teenage bedroom. We agreed that the room should have purple in it to indicate the gender; we chose to use Lara's bedroom.

Our final location needed to be a field and we decided it should be close to our other locations and so we will be using the relatively deserted Millers Pond.

Whilst choosing out locations we had to consider keeping them as close to life as possible, using locations which were easily accessible and that could be returner to if necessary.
