1. Locations
The location that we used was inside the British museum in the medieval gallery because it
is where the Lewis chessmen is placed, this goes with the idea of mise-en-scene and visual
coding.
One other location that we used for our documentary was outside the British museum. The
location was shown in the beginning of our documentary showing our audience were the
Lewis chessmen are displayed. The front entrance of the British museum was shot with a
long/extreme shot, so the audience can see the whole of the outside of the British museum.
