Preliminary Task Location

For our preliminary task we obviously needed a location/setting to film our sequence. From basing the storyboard around the school's surroundings it was relatively easy to find a small adaquete office to do our filming. In the end my partner and I decided to go to the abandoned science block where there would be little noise and no distractions. When observing the room I took the thought of lighting and camera postioning into consideration to see if the shots from the storyboard could be reconstructed in the best way. There was a wide window which let a vast amount of light into the room which was beneficial for us as the light could be absorbed if necessary. There were also minor distractions as we would be filming at the far end of the science block. The corridors approaching the office also let in a light but created shadowed areas which could look effective due to the skylight windows. The room was small but there was the required amount of space to film in. Also there was a selection of objects that we could use as props, if we possibly wanted to adjust the setting i.e. tables, chairs, cabinets etc.

Here is a picture of the chosen location:
