Possible filming locations:
St Stephens street underpass..
Advantages:
Suitable lighting and colours for a thriller film as it can create dark shadows and a desaturated colour pallet.
It is a very bleak location, to reflect the theme of our film and connote crime and enigma.
The Underground tunnel is metaphorical for hellishness or a journey into darkness. It is also mysterious because it doesn't reveal the location above.
This location is similar to the tunnel used in the opening of Essex Boys.
Disadvantages:
It could cause problems with the sound because it is quite echoey therefore the footage may pick up unwanted sounds.
It is often busy with people, so won't look very isolated.
St stephens street...
Advantages:
To use as a location in a short walking scene.
It is an urban, industrial area to suit the British gangster theme.
There are a lot of traffic sounds which we could use to connote the dangerous, unsettling city, similar to the diegetic siren sounds used in Se7en.
Disadvantages:
A highly populated area.
not the right lighting or colour pallet, unlike the underpass.
Iceland car park...
Advantages:
Industrial environment.
Low key lighting, to create shadows.
quiet and isolated, to connote the emptiness and immorality.
Disadvantages:
Doesn't fit with the plot very well.
Could have too dark lighting.
Car noises could be interruptive.
Bus station...
Advantages:
Desaturated colours
Industrial and dull.
Works well with the plot because the buses suggests that the character is escaping.
Close to the other locations.
Disadvantages:
There are lots of unwanted diegetic sounds: music playing and the sound from buses.
