Technical Planning- Locations

Locations
We planned to film in three different places around our a Sixth Form, this was to widen our setting area for our film so that it isn't just in one setting throughout the opening scene. As the table States we was going to use the Sixth Forms Theatre to film the wedding ceremony for then the bride to be killed infront of all the wedding guests, but we had to change this idea as the threats wasn't free during the time slot we created due to other arrangements around the Sixth Form, also gathering an audience wouldn't also been difficult as students within the Sixth Form would of been in their lessons. 
So with this we had to change small aspects of our film idea, we changed it so we would see th bride and groom getting ready for the wedding, this was filmed in the toilets at the Sixth Form due to the cleanliness of them and that they looked professional as a hotel suite would look. 
We then decided not to film on the field as we didn't believe it was needed for the title sequence as it would of had to much in it for a two minute opening of s film. 

Within the college we filmed in a few different areas. The photographs below show where we filmed within the building and outside. 

The top floor of the sixth form
When we filmed on the top floor, we filmed the killing scene of the bride. We chose to do it here because there wasn't anyone around during the time of the filming and Tommy (the killer) could hide out in the lift before he jumps out and kills the bride. We also chose to film it here due to the natural lighting from the door which you can see in the photograph and in the film. 

The roof of the sixth form
We chose to film on the roof of the sixth form for the talk between the brides sister and the killer as there was no noise from others within the college and where you can see the background of high building it creates an effect that they are on a high building hiding from someone so that they can talk about the killing. I believe this is affective because it created the effect we wished to create. 

The Toliets at the sixth form
We chose to have the bride and groom of the film to get ready in the Toliets at the sixth form as they look clean and professional. Also due to the mirror we could create an over the shoulder shot of the two characters so that they can see both sides of their costume. 

The road outside the sixth form - diamond road
The road outside the sixth form is where we filmed the haunting scene where the bride is following the couple down the road. I believed this was effective as the couple look ordinary and do not suspect that there is someone haunting them. We also liked the idea of cars going past during filming so that it looks like an normal day for the couple.
