Locations

In the opening there is going to be an interview with the Prime Minister talking to the children about the recession and the government. As a group we decided to go out looking in the school for interesting places to shot this scene.

Reception

We took pictures of three options, this is the first. Right outside of the school with the school logo above where the interview would take place. The place is quite busy, however as it is the main entrance to the school so we could get interupted and is a bit impractical. Therefore based on these reasons we decided against it.

Outside the front entrance

This is our second option you can see the front of the school and the logo from a better angle, but because of the brick wall in front it makes the scenery look very dull and uninteresting. Not only this it is positioned on a main road so would still be quite loud and busy, this could be fixed when editing but because of the uninteresting look about it we also decided against this location.

Art piece

This is our third and final location we looked at, we decided as a group that this was the best one as it look unique yet it is still to do with the school as has the logo right infront of you. With the interviewer and Prime Minister stood in front of it I think it would look much better than the other locations we looked at. Also it is out the way so I don't think we would get interupted as much.


From looking at locations I now know how important scenery and setting is to the the thriller opening and with all the considerations we had to take when choosing it. I believe that the whole group chose this one so it is good that we agreed and are now able to move forward on the project.
