This document provides an assessment of Castlefield Car Alleyway as a potential filming location. It notes that the alleyway has enough enclosed space to film multiple indoor scenes, and its lack of natural light and background noise make it suitable. Both close-up and wider shots could work there. No permission is needed as it is a public area. Additional lighting may be required depending on weather. Noise from people and traffic could interfere but can be addressed in editing. The best times to film are between 10-11am or 2-3pm to avoid disturbances. Safety issues will be evaluated in a risk assessment.

What shots would be available? E.g. XLS/Long
shots possible or just tighter framed shots?
Take some test shots.
Close up– mediumlongshot,there
isnot an excessamountof roombut
that isnot necessaryforthese

Most shotswill be tightframedas it
isin a confinedareaandtheywill all
have to be POV shotsas there will
be too much movement.However,
thisadds to the visual effectof my

accordinglyasthisis where Ineed
to draw tension.

close time slotsandon the same day
to preventthe weatherchangingin

Noise – what sounds can you hear? Will these
interfere with filming (e.g. sound from people,
traffic, electrical appliances, etc.)
Hopefullytherewillnotbe any
backgroundsoundas castlefieldis
designedespeciallyforfilmingandis
inan enclosedspace.
The noisesof the car, trafficand
anythingfromthe outside may
interfere withthisscenebutthere is
a verysmall amountof dialogue
here therefore Iwasgoingto edit
thisscene withambientmusic
behindtocancel it out.
Thisis a publicspace therefore there
may be backgroundnoise howeverI
will be placingambientmusicbehind
a lot of it whichwill cancel itout.
However,thisisanalleywaysoitwill
not be too badas there will be no
trafficor a huge amount of people to
make noise.
Are there times of day it is best/worst? (e.g. in
terms of access, light, sound, disturbance)
I will be providedatime slotwhich
will be the time bestsuitedtofilmin,

I will have tocomplete thisscene in
