Locations for filming

For my short movie I am filming in two different locations, inside an abandoned office in Birmingham and outside of the office in the backstreets of Birmingham. Here are some pictures I took previous to filming when visiting the location to see if it was suitable for filming...

Above is an image of the office scene which is shown a couple of seconds into the short movie. As you can see the office fit in well with the urban theme as the office has not been used in a while so it is messy and has paper work everywhere which was perfect for this scene. The lighting was also very suitable in this scene. 

 

 

Above is another image from the first office scene. With this image you can see better the desk where the main character is sitting. This was perfect for the office scene as it had a desk with a chair and paper work on the walls and desk ready for filming. 

The two images above are images of the room the girl is taken to and trapped in when she gets captured. Again we thought this room was perfect for the scene as there was broken furniture, a large wardrobe which was slanted and the lighting was more dim which was perfect for this scene. There were also two doors with locks on which looked scary which fit in with the scene perfectly too.

The images above are images of the antagonists office and where the antagonist makes a phone call to his boss. This again perfectly suited the scene as it had lots of conventions suitable such as crooked window, tables and chairs which made the room look urban. 

Finally, for the last scene we needed an outdoor area to film in so we used the back area of the office which was an abandoned yard which was messy and you could see overgrown bushes and trees in the background adding to the scene.
