Location.

For our location we chose an abandoned airbase about 3 miles inside Twford woods. We chose this for multiple reasons, these being;


- It was unlikely to have been seen before in media projects. Many people choose locations that have been used in other productions, usually around the local area. We wanted to ensure that ours was unique in this sense.


- It let light in from the sides we wanted, the windows were to the right side to create this low lighting effect.


- It was big enough for us to do our credits on. We wanted to incorporate our credits in with our main location in order to keep the opening fluid. We sprayed on the walls and the titles did not get in the way of any of the filming that we did so they are not noticeable in any ways but the titles themselves are very good.


- It sticks to the conventions of a thriller location and also creates a suitable Mise-en-scene. It is gloomy and abandoned, it is claustrophobic in the sense that it is only a small bunker, however it is also rather open. From various shots you can see that it is miles away from any forms of civilisation.
