Location. Ideal Location Space:

1 Location Ideal Location Space: The main settings we need our: an office space, a staircase and a basement based on the new updated screenplay draft 2. Unlike other groups research on location was not really required as the venue already came to my mind. Since the story was based on a journalist student we thought it would be ideal to film in a media/radio company as the environment would match with our concept. The company is called RPL, they have professional camera equipment, tripods and other appliances. However, their equipment is very heavy which we considered a risk for our filming because we are shooting along the stairs and various locations in the building. This would make us tired and out of energy so the acting would be poor. So, we decided to use a normal camera which Najma owns even though the quality may not be that good it s easier to use and has less risks. People affected: The people affected by the filming are those who are working on Saturdays we will be using the main office space and are only given 30 minutes to use it because it is a small space and other people are working which can distract them. This is a very short period to film in the office and we must be very precise and organised. Map : This studio is in South Acton and is quite easy to get too. For example, the Piccadilly line can be taken to Acton town or district line can be taken to Acton town or Chiswick park. From there you can walk down Bollo Lane or take the 70 bus. In terms on location its very suitable to get too but can be very confusing as the studio is within other roads, therefore a map would be advised to bring on the first routing.

2 To get in contact with the company there is a page created just for that, in our group I contacted this company through a personal phone number in which they agreed upon my request to film it there. I offered a proposal which was we would give them credit in the filming credits and they would publish the video on the website or share it on their Facebook. Google Maps: This is where we filmed

3 Location Photos: 1) For the first shot, I went by myself to a local park and filmed the sunrise from 7:40 am-8:05am it was a very chilly cold morning. Temperature were below 0 degrees and I was not wearing enough clothing so my hands became so cold they began to turn red and I couldn t move them. This photo was taken at 7:39 am I was wearing a coat, scarf and despite that I was still cold. At 8:16 I took a photo of the sunrise, overall I was at the park for 1 hour, but I could attain a 30 second hyper lapse which is useful to put in the opening because a lot of hard work went into getting that footage.

4 2) All the office related scenes were filmed here: typing, magazine, envelope and walking out. We filmed in this location for a very long time- about 2 hours but we had the best footage done here. 3) This was the office we filmed in from the outside. 4) For the hyper lapse roof shots, this is how it looked like and train: Then ewe filmed in the basement which was a separate building. The door was glass and it looked too modern which is why we used the office door but made it appear that it was the basement door.

5 This was the roof top I was standing on, it doesn t look that tall but it had a nice tube view. This is a photo from the window of the grey building, I did a test shot in here.
