Finding the Right Location

Our group have been trying to find the perfect scene location for the film's flashback scenes. We mostly used Google Maps looking at nearby areas we could drive to to see whether or not it was the best location for our filming. When looking for location we wanted to find a place with little light, some forestation which is also near a road to film the car crash scene. One problem with location is the fact that the public always walking into shot so we have to start again; this has happened on numerous occasions before.

 

We found that Kings Drive was the best location to film as it was close for us to get to and it fit quite well with our filming plans. However the lighting was not adequate enough for our intended scenery plan. With this being the case we decided to film in Ashton Park as this location was quiet similar with its atmosphere, but it had the lighting we wanted.
