Film Location

For our film, we had to choose a suitable location for our film - we used a questionnaire to get the target audience to choose their preferences for our genre. The results showed that the majority of people in our survey chose the woods, so our group decided we will stick to that location. We chose Ashtead Common for our location as it was local, fairly isolated and had a lot of space. I took images of the space we were using to give the audience a clue on where exactly the film is set.

This setting was ideal for our film opening as when using certain shot types we were able to make running scenes and others look professional. Another reason as to why this was an ideal location was because of the amount of space we had to choose the exact spot for certain parts of the opening.

However the location was not a conventional location to use as it is not normally used in Thriller/Action films, but more in Horror. But to make the film more original, we have used conventional props and characters, but stuck them into a conventional horror location.
