Filming Locations

Me and my group went out around and outside the school grounds to look for a suitable location to shoot our film opening in. The main criteria for our location was that it had to be isolated and surrounded by foliage. We found two possible locations that we could use.


This was the first location we found. The lane is very isolated and is surrounded by trees, which we thought looked very effective and could work well in our film. This area is a public footpath so I don't think we would need any authorisation to film here.

 

 

This is the second location we found. There isn't really a clear footpath through these woods, just a clearing, which wouldn't really work for our film opening. This location doesn't seem as isolated as the first one we found, however, we think it would look creepier in the dark than the first location would. I wasn't sure whether we would need authorisation to film here as the sign says that it is a private road.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We have decided to use the first location to shoot our film opening as it is more isolated and has a clear footpath. It would make more sense for our main character to be walking along a path than just wandering in the woods.
