Fiction Adaption: Locations

Today i went and took pictures of some of my locations. I had visualised these places when writing the script so i had a good idea in my head of where i wanted them to be set. I always find it useful as a writer/director to have a place in mind especially for these sorts of projects as it could be a lot more difficult to source if you hadn't fully thought through the location in your script.

The garages 1:

The 1st garage location is on an estate but not on a side street. i want the garages to be more secluded and also a little bit more run down than these ones



Garages 2:

The 2nd garage location is just off this street..

The estate is further up the road but i feel that this is slightly more reflective off the location i have in mind. This panoramic view shows the garages on either side of the street, but the garages i want to use are down the side street where the rspb sign is pointing. 


These are the Garages i have in mind.




I like the run down aspect of the area, although there isn't any grafitti i think the leaves and rubble still gives a good image of run down, especially being off the other street.

The woods:







These woods are where i am considering having the woods day for night scene, i feel that in parts their is good enough coverage for us to not see the sky and therefore give a good darkness impression. I also like the trees being near the path as they could be a good depth of field shot and also a good place for Jack to try and hide. 

Stay safe,

Helen
