Change in location


Our group had decided to change locations as we thought that having our old location would not suit the atmosphere that we are trying to create. This is because there are only 2 containers therefore it would be hard to film, however if the scene was stacked full off containers it would suit the scene much more.

The new location we chose is the car park on Radnor road. We chose this location because it suited the concept we were looking for, as it is abandoned and deserted meaning that there would not be a lot of people in that area. This fits out mise en scene as we needed the location to seem secluded as it would fit with our thriller as the hit man would not take them somewhere busy to kill them.

The second location we used, was where the hit man kills the victim. This location seems very abandoned and unvisited therefore the victim would not be found making it a suitable place to dump a body.

How many locations do you have?
We will be using 2 locations for our media thriller. One is the car park where our Car is going to be situated at while the other location is inside the forest/woods near the Car Park

What issues can you foresee?
The main issues will be the same as our last location which is the weather due to its unpredictability. The weather forecast predicts that it will be raining for a few minutes. Nevertheless this would still be used as it would create a more suspense and tense environment, however it might take longer to film as our film equipment isn't rain compatible.

How long do we intend on being there?
We intend on being there as long as our previous location which is approx. 6/7 hours. We intend on spending 5 hours in our first location (car park) and 1 to 2 hours in our second location (forest) depending on the weather as the weather could vary the time the crew sets up a little to finding a more suitable locations (less muddy)

Where is it?
We will be shooting our thriller outside of school, which is a 4 minute drive away. The blue box on the top left is our locations which is a large car park that we will be intending to use our thriller as a location. The on the bottom right is my school, hurtwood house there you can see its only going to be a few minute drive.


Do we have permission
As it is public property we have been allowed to film in this location and our group has confirmed it with the media department.
