Name: Mentmore Crescent Date of visit: December 10th 2014Location-This was the setting where the characters meet for the first time. This setting also shows the car driving past.

In this area we intend to film our car driving past specific areas of the road and parking up, we then intend to film the dealing and the customer conversing before the car drives off. Lighting Level: The lighting level in this location will be natural; this is because it is an outdoor area. When we filmed in this location no added light was needed as the lighting level was adequate. During the filming of our film in this setting the weather conditions were good, this makes the lighting good for us in this case, we choose to film on a day where it was sunny and not dim or raining, we thought that this would be the best lighting for our filming.Noise level:The noise level at this location couldve been bad depending on the time of day, if when we filmed was around 3:30-4:00pm during the week we couldve had problems with background sound however we chose a sensible time during the day in which no background noise was any firm of problem. However one problem that we faced during the filming was small background noises, things like unwanted car engines therefore we re-filmed and got the best possible shots that we could for this scene. Overall suitability:This setting we thought was suitable for our film, we thought this because it is away from most things and looks like an area where dealings would take place. This area also offered us a place where the car was able to park up and for the characters to converse. We also chose this location because we thought that this location would be quiet enough for us to re-film if we needed to.Potential Hazards:When filming here we had to take into consideration the dangers that may have been caused here, for example this is a residential area therefore we had to take into consideration that cars will be coming up and down the road, however the road wasnt too busy but as a precautionary method we made sure that we didnt spend to much time on the roads. Another potential hazard that we couldve faced during the filming of our film in this scene would be the camera getting hit by the car, we prevented any accidents like this happening by making sure that we spend little time on the road and that we was very careful where we placed the cameras.

Name: Queensbury Boiler HouseDate of visit: December 10th 2014Location- This is the location where the character is being trapped/held hostage.

In this scene you will be able to see one of our characters being tied to a chair against his will, he is also unconscious. Also in this scene we are able to see a strange man walking towards the hostage with a crowbar. Lighting Level: The lighting level in this location was low key however this was what we wanted as it helped create the atmosphere of a dark, gloomy room, which can be typically seen in hostage situations. We used some extra background lighting to make it look like the attention was focused on the character that is being held hostage.Noise level:The noise level in this location wasnt any problem, apart from in some cases the background sound of the boilers working would end up being a problem, however we could not do much about this noise apart from wait until it finished and then re film again but this wasnt a problem at all.Overall suitability:Overall we thought that this location was suitable as we through that this location would be seen in a typical thriller film, we go rid of as much lighting as we could to add a dark gloomy effect to it, this also helped to portray that there was no escape and no way out for the victim. Also because its secluded place it helps the audience understands that there is no way out for the character.Potential Hazards:When filming in this location we had to take into consideration of the potential hazards, for example a thing that we had to think about while filming was the boilers exploding , this was very unlikely however we did have to think about this potential hazard occurring, other than that there was no other dangers that couldve prevented us from filming.
