2. ADDRESS & MAP OF LOCATION.

3. WHY IS IT A SUITABLE LOCATION FOR THE
SCENE?
The studio will be a good location for me to film as this takes no
time to get to my location as it is still in school . As I am a student
this is good as I don’t drive and so I will not have to worry about
travelling to the location, this will also help me save money as we
aren’t given a budget towards this project.

4. THE AVAILABILITY OF THE LOCATION?
As my location is here in my school will not need to contact anyone or phone the council to
confirm I am allowed to use the space. I will have to make sure that the studio is free so that
we don’t disturb any lessons. My backup location will also need to contact as it is on the
school premise and this will not be a crowed place or used by a class. My contact to use the
school studio will be Mr. walker I will need to contact him to book out equipment and use the
studio. As I am in the school I will have to go in my own time to take the photos so I will have
to work around my own availability and my timetable.

5. POWER SOURCES
As I have chose the studio in school for my location there will be no problem with power
sources as there will be plugs available to charge any equipment that needs charging. I will
need to consider the health and safety risks and not overload the plug sockets.
In my back up location which is just outside of BOA on the wall of the school, there will not be
any power sources outside of the school so I will need to make sure that everything is already
charged fully so this doesn’t ruin my plan and I get it done for the deadline.

6. LIGHTING ISSUES
In the studio in school there is windows in there so I will be able to use natural light or I could
use artificial and controlled by me. I can use the ceiling lights and the red head lights if we
need more light. If I wanted more lighting where there was shadows I will use a bounce board
which will reflect the light around the room.

MY SECOND
LOCATION

8. WHY IS IT A SUITABLE LOCATION FOR THE
SCENE?
East side will be a good location for us all as it is very
local and it is just down the road from boa meaning we
wont have to travel anywhere, this is good as we wont
have to travel and neither will our dancers. This will help
us save money towards the project.

9. THE AVAILABILITY OF THE LOCATION?
Our location is a public place so that we can use this at all times as we are students so we will
not have to pay for this location. Our pack up location will be the studio as this is always
available to use and this can easily be accessed. My contact for this would be no one for the
park but for the back up location Miss Johnson would be our contact for this.

10. POWER SOURCES
As we are in the park and there is obviously no power sources so we will have to make sure
that all of the batteries are fully charged and anything which need constant power we will have
to just use when we are in the studio and only use the battery powered one in eastside. This
hopefully wont be a problem for us.
In my back up location which is in the studio will have plugs and anything that is needed
throughout, so there will be no problem with the plug sockets.

11. LIGHTING ISSUES
Outside on eastside there will be natural lighting, I wont be able to adjust the lighting unless I
am doing it in the dark. This wont be problem though as we are wanted the lighting to look
natural anyway.
