- 2. ‘MENTAL INSTITUTION CORRIDOR’ Source: Google Images Location: St. Anne’s school maths corridor As inspiration for our locations, we used Google images to search for images that were similar to the ideas we had in our minds as a group. When we had found several images, we chose the best one and attempted to create a location similar to that in the photograph. The image on the left is what we decided on after searching Google Images. We then created a similar photograph which is shown on the right. The corridor scene was still done in school as it was our first time filming and we had permission to film on that occasion.
- 3. ‘MENTAL INSTITUTION CORRIDOR’ Lights on Lights off Location: St. Anne’s school maths corridor To experiment with lighting, we took images with the lights on and off to see which would look better. As we initially thought, the location looks better and suits our movie opening more when the lights are off.
- 4. THE TOILET Location: Trinity-at-Bowes Location: Trinity-at-Bowes Source: Google Images youth centre youth centre female toilet female toilet This toilet was suitable for our scenes as it is very spacious and also has a wide mirror. We found this toilet to be better than Saint Anne’s School’s toilet. This is because at our school, the space between the toilet and the mirror was very narrow, causing us to film inside the toilet at times. This made it more challenging to film. However, the toilet at the youth centre had enough space, as evident, to film without any barriers.
- 5. The images are of the toilets in Saint Anne’s Catholic high school for girls. It is evident through the images that the space between the sink and the toilets themselves
- 6. We found that the lift gives a suspenseful effect as it’s slow in movement. Also, it allowed us to use different camera angles (CCTV: downwards tilt and upwards tilt in the non-CCTV scenes). This is why we decided to Location: St. Anne’s corridor double doors Location: St. Anne’s toilet doors use it. It was very easy to use as there was a button which allowed us to stop at any time which meant that we could go back up or down if we needed to re-film.
- 7. These buttons were useful when we needed to re-film a certain scene. However, it was seen as an issue to the filmer as they had to film (holding the camera) and press the button at the same time. This was inconvenient.
