Location Plan

All our filming is taking place on the one site and we have been granted access to the entire site. We chose this suburban site to convey the feeling that the scenario can happen in any home, in any suburban life and that it is not always in isolated locations where danger and hunting take place.

Site Layout 

The location (highlighted in green) has road access and parking at the front and rear of the building, but there will be some filming at the front meaning we may have to move vehicles. There are toilets and catering facilities on site.

Area 1 of filming

 

Area 1 is an outside location with easy access. It is an area where only natural light can be used. This is part of one of the parking areas which may mean that when filming in this location we may have to move any vehicles parked here. This area is located next to a road, which may mean there will be background noise. This will be taken into account when filming in this area, but most of the scenes shot in this location will have music placed over them post production. 

 

 

 

Area 2 of filming

 

 Area 2 is located along the hall way of the house. Apart from the shot of Chloe walking through the front door all other scenes shot in this area can only use artificial lighting as there is very little access to natural lighting here. The area is quite small in width so we will need to utilise the area in the doorways to film from into the hall. Also, the flooring is tiled, which may mean that there will be echoing, but we should be able to reduce the background noise and thus the echoing post production. 

 

 

Area 3 of filming

 

Area 3 is where the main section of filming will take place including the exorcism and the murder. Artificial lighting is accessible from the ceiling light, candles and from lighting equipment. Natural Light is also accessible from the window. The room is quite small and we have decided to film with several camera at the same time from different angles so we need to be conscious of the camera being able to see one another from the different positions. 

 

 

 

 

Area 4 of filming

 

Area 4 is a lot darker even with the artificial lighting, but this is alright as dark lighting conforms to one of the conventions of a horror film. As you can see the area is quite cluttered so we need to be conscious of making sure there is no irrelevant or distracting objects in the shots.
