-As two people from our group were going to Paris on a photography trip in February half term, an idea is to film some establishing shots there and shots for our title sequence, as well as getting some sound clips.
-We also needed a church and having lots of villages in the area there were multiple options; Weston, Ashwell and Guilden Morden.
- We needed a police station exterior, where we could use the Baldock Police Station as it is no longer functional. For the inside we will need an office and corridor. We have found an office we can use in Baldock that is rarely used, having blinds which suit the film noir theme well.
- We also need a place for the murder scene; possibles being alleyways by Baldock High Street or a tunnel by Baldock Springs, which has graffiti all over it and is very dark and suitable.
- Around the tunnel is an old industrial estate, which has many run down places which would set the scene well.
-For the first scene, we needed an inside of a house, a bedroom shot, living room shot and shot from the outside showing the front door.
During one of our lessons we went to our chosen scenes, taking pictures. First of all we went around Ashwell village:
This would be an interesting house to include, being old-fashioned.
This is a picture of the road from the house,
which would be a good shot of the main character getting into his car.
We found a narrow road which could be used.
These next few images are of the Ashwell Springs, which could have a very omious feel at nighttime.
The trees without leaves could work well to set the Film Noir mood.
We then went to see Ashwell Church, to see if it would be the one we would use when filming. The church scene looked how we pictured it to be, so we plan to use this church when filming.
The graveyard has an effective, eerie effect, full of gravestones.
Using a low angle shot makes the church look more powerful, and taller/towering over.
The doorway also would be an effective shot when central.
The pathway leading up to the church looks good,
and I like the trees beside it, making an archway.
The shadows created by the trees on the pathway could make an interesting, gloomy shot.
This could be a potential alleyway/walk to office.
