Location scout 1

On the first location scout we knew we wanted the opening of our video to show to dullness of our main characters everyday life, so we started his journey at school. We planned a rough route of where we wanted him to go and took shots of locations and angles that might be useful, as you can see below:

This is a shot of the class room the character could sit down in, or maybe take part in an exam in. We will use this class room as there is enough room to manouvre the camera and get a straight on shot of the character sat at a desk.

This corridor could be used to show the charcters journey through the school, and there could be interesting use of the lights coming in through the big window at the end of the corridor.

These stairs again could be useful just to get a different angle on the characters journey through school, different angles capturing the audiences attention more.

This lift would again show different angles, and the use of reflection could be interesting. However it is so small we probably couldn't get a camera in the lift, so all shots would have to be from outside.

This is another corridor shot we could use whilst the character is on his way out of school. Again we could use the light coming in through the doors opposite to create iconic images of the character running out.

I had an idea to show the character running past from this angle, just to get different shots for the audience. The idea came from last years work filming a chase scene, and we could also show the characters feet running with a fixed camera focussing on his feet.

The final picture is taken in the toilets, and I think we could make good use of the reflection in the mirrors. The toilets are wide enough to get the camera in and get good shots, and would be perfect for our main character to put his mask on and then look in the mirror.
