Location


Out side shots of a high rise flats is the setting for our opening. Lawrence Hill Roundabout Bristol A420, Easton, Bristol.
This would be an ideal location as it fits the main convention of a Crime thriller, with it's location in the centre of town, and the fact the the building is high rise, will combine with the interior location to give the impression of a block of apartments. 
The interior stair shots will be taken in the Buisness studies stair in Gordano school.
We planned to use a separate location for the stairs and interior set because are not expecting to get inside the high rise flats in  easton. This location specifically is suitable because do the dirty, industrial look which you would expect the stair case for a apartment building to look like.

The only problems with these two locations is the lighting in both locations matching up and the availability of the actors to get to location at these specific times to suit the lighting

Revised Location

Shirehampton, Bristol, City of Bristol BS11 0DP

We decided against going to easton to shoot for several reasons, one of them being the risk of going to an area with a very bad reputation at night with expensive camera equipment. another being the distance and inconvenience of getting actors to location.

We then decided on using the high rise flats in Shirehampton, which is alot closer to 4 out 5 of the actors, safer to film and still very suitable for the genre because of the size and location of the building.

The revised inside location for the shoot will be my living room and stair case, as the light can be changed easily to suit the lighting of the outside location and it is alot easier to manipulate and organise than anywhere on the school grounds.
