Location Selection


The opening section of my project was based in an suburban area.  I selected a moderately modern homely location in order to make my video relatable to typical everyday people, as I believe relatability is the key to making a successful product.

Due to this area being occupied by families there is  a high risk of intruders on the shots, to resolve this I planned to shoot at times which are usually quiet. Additionally I selected this home which is placed stepped back from the road side.



The next location was selected due to its visual qualities. The converging lines create a forced line of view into the shot causing the viewer to be drawn to the actor as the camera continues to track backwards from the protagonist.

This location again had very serious risks. We couldn't close the road, therefore we had to time our shooting precisely in order to ensure minimal interruptions took place.




This location is used in order to transition the story into another location and therefore altering the mood and vibe of the shots. The natural surroundings suggest this location acts as an escape from reality and it the protagonist’s way to reflect and release his anger and sadness due to the relationships breakdown.­­
