Is it suitable (think about genre,
narrative, research you have
undertaken)? How? Why?
Once we have transformed the room the
yes, 100%. We have a very clear idea of
how we are going to change the room to
make it genre apparent or like a ‘dingy’
indie gig. It is also worth mentioning
that there is now black curtains around
the perimeter of the room, therefore we
have full control of the lighting.

2. Access Issues
This is the location where we will be using the crowd, therefore the venue needs
to be near everybody who is attending. However, unfortunately it isn’t,
therefore the biggest problem is to get everybody from Richmond to Darlington.
So here is our solution: the shoot begins at 2pm, this is just in time for the 29
bus to arrive from Darlington meaning everybody can attend the shoot. Other
than that the room is easy to find in Richmond and cars can park nearby.
Lighting Issues
There are now black curtains surrounding the perimeter meaning we have full
control of all of the lights. This is perfect!
Sound Issues (if applicable)
In order for the band to play along to the song, it has to be extremely loud so
they can hear it. Therefore, there could be an awful lot of noise coming out of
the building. Luckily, we are not filming in unsociable hours in the day and
there aren’t any houses (etc.) nearby. We will have to warn the staff at the
Georgian Theatre in advance so they can warn anyone who they think might
be affected.
