Locations

Grace's garage - Greenhithe

Grace's garage has the potential to become a room or bedroom for our actor. We will decorate it accordingly; shabby furniture, messy floor, torn wallpaper/brick walls, basically a neglected environment, to reflect his life and mental state.

Leake Street - Lambeth SE1 - behind Waterloo Station

Matt Brown has hosted two amazing photographs taken on a Holga camera on his Flickr account, of Leake Street, a tunnel in London which features some incredible graffiti. The lighting in this tunnel, and the art on the walls, would provide some interesting shots for our video. The atmosphere in a tunnel, and what being in a tunnel symbolises (feeling trapped, alone, oppressed, helpless) is perfect for the video we want to create.

Hackney Road - Hackney E2

This East London location is perfect as it's rough and urban, adding to the image we want to portray. The railway bridge and alleyways also add to the environment we want to create. Some interesting night shots could be created here, as shown by the photograph.

Battersea Power Station - Battersea SW8

Battersea power station is an old abandoned building and a less obvious choice for a London landmark. The ruined insides would provide a perfect grimey environment, although we may not be able to film inside the actual building. The facade would still provide some aesthetically unqiue shots for our video.

Richmond Park - Richmond SW15

Richmond Park is the largest open space in London, and has some wildlife such as deer and birds which would create interesting footage for our video. A herd of deer running or a flock of birds flying would be dramatic and reflect the subjects confused and disorientated state of mind.

Dartford Town Centre

We've decided to use a kebab shop closer to home for this part of the filming, and using Google Maps, found a suitable location.
