Planning: Locations

We plan to shoot the majority of our video tomorrow, or at least the entirety of the interior scenes. Overall, we require three locations: Two interior - that of a bedroom, and a kitchen or dining room of some sort, and one exterior - that of a park or a playground. When considering interior locations, we had a pretty clear idea of the layout and image we wanted - for example with the breakfast scene, we wanted a long dining table, preferably positioned parallel to a window. We felt that visually, this would create the best effect, as for one it doesn't leave too much empty space in the frame, but additionally would be crucial when it came to the utilisation of natural lighting in our video, used to promote the feeling of realism. Fortunately one member of our group, Kuda, suggested using his house which turned out to look almost exactly like we had imagined.


He has confirmed that his house is free for us to film tomorrow, meaning we should be able to get all of the interior shots done in one go.

The park that we had originally intended to use was Victoria Park, fairly near to college. However, seeing as there is a large park roughly ten minutes away from Kuda's, we have decided to film as much of the exterior shots as we can there tomorrow, weather permitting.
