Location research (photography research)

This is the sheet that me and my partner took around to follow the list of different locations around the college. As you can see it is not completed yet but will be soon. It also says why is the location we took good for a horror film or photo shoot, so you had to explain that too.






The research we were doing is primary because we are the ones taking the pictures from our camera's. A location scout is where you take pictures of different locations that would relate to your film, and where you think you would film in your movie or even for a photo shoot. Location scout is very important as it is the process in the Pre-production stage of anything because you got to know where possible places you could film or capture.

I think this picture could maybe suit a horror film as there's no one in the picture and it looks like the college is quiet which could create tension.
I think that maybe if the lights were dimmer or off at the end of the corridor it could be a more scary scene in a horror film.

This photo could suit a horror photo shoot because its near the bins and boiler room which is very unusual and different. If it was night time it would look more like a scary scene.

This is the same photo from above, and again this could be a horror photo shoot as it is the boiler room which no one expects that place to be scary.

This picture would suit a horror film because it looks kinda dark and it and the CCTV being there makes it look more scary i think. I think with the camera there it creates a sense of mystery in the place.

This would defiantly suit a horror film because its in the middle of the trees which is like the woods. The woods is usually used in most horror films so this would be a perfect place to shoot one.

I don't think this would suit a horror theme because there's a brightly coloured wall and horror doesn't suit with that. Horror is more dark and gloomy colours, this looks more like a happy and safe environment.









This would suit both a horror film and photo shoot. This is like a alleyway which can be scary in films and create tension. An alleyway is good thing in a horror film because alleyways are usually dark and quiet and something happens in them in films.

This photo would suit for a horror photo shoot, if you had the villain on the stairs with a scary face and if you had the victim right in front of the camera that would be a good horror poster. Also if the background was darker and had a gloomy effect it would suit the horror genre more.
