Locations of Filming

1. Locations:
Whenfilmingourmediaproduct,we chose areas that we thought would suit the film best and was
more convenientforthe group.Harlingtonwasourchosenplace,whichisa small village near Luton.
The reason why Harlington was ideal, was because we all attend to the school there, and so could
meet up whenever to film. Despite being a small village, there was many places we could film,
including the school.
Eric in his room: we useda highangle close up
shotas itshowsthat the character is small and
has been forced to back into a corner. The
paper was placed in the centre of the frame
allowing the audience to focus on what Eric
has written.
Isolation shot: we used an establishing shot for
this shot to show that Eric has been isolated from
the outside. It also shows Eric blowing out smoke
fromthe cigarette whilsteveryone carries on with
theireveryday agendas, implying how isolated he
feels.
School Montage: we used establishing shots
for the montage scene as it sets the scene of
where ourmediaproductwill be placedat. We
used a worm’s eye view shot, a tracking shot
and a close up shot when Eric arrives at the
school. This was so we could see his emotion
of returning to the place which he dreaded.
The worm’s eye view shows just his shoes,
making the scene more sinister connoting to
the genre of a thriller.
