Location Research

 Location Research

We intend for our short film to be filmed in a terrace house or cottage, a small house with little or no garden in a relatively rural area but not secluded. We imagine the interior to be cosy and with relatively small rooms.

We are most likely going to use a house belonging to one of the group members or one of our family members  due to the convenience of this, however we did discuss the idea of making use of services such as Airbnb. This however is difficult due to our limited financial resources. We will most likely film in one of the group members house, however it is vital that we can find a house that conveys the right idea, Mary and Patrick Maloney's house is seen to be a cosy, terrace house therefore we have to make sure the house we use matches this description.  

We looked at various possible locations to where we could begin filming. Both are shown below. The top image offers a scenic exterior which would feature well in the shots within our film. We found that the green land and brick walls give the aesthetic which we are aiming for in the film. The bottom image displays our second option. 

Location 1 

Location 2

I looked at the interior of location 1 to evaluate its use for the setting of our film. There is dark furniture situated at different locations throughout the room and the use of the theme of red in the sofas, seats and curtains could also convey undertones to help our film achieve its genre; by causing foreboding undertones with the use of the colour red.
