St. Andrew’s Catholic School
Unit G324: Advanced Portfolio in Media
Locations
1. Lizzie’s House
The reason we have chosen to use this location to film the majority of the trailer because
there are a variety of different rooms to fit each storyline/scene. Another reason is because
the house is extremely close to the other two locations we are using (15 minutes walking
distance).
Potential Hazards/Risks
Location specific -
Why?
How will this be resolved?
One potential risk for this location is that there are roads surrounding the
house so we will have to be highky aware of potential incoming traffic and
crossing the road. Another potential hazard is that there might be lots of
wires in the area due to all the equiptment we will be using so will will have
to ensure to keep the area tidy so nobody trips over them. Lizzie also has a
few cats so we will also have to check to see if any other members of the
group have any allergies, if so depending on how severe the allergies are we
may have to potentially change our location.
This is one of our class
members houses which is
where we will be filming the
majority of our trailer.
Example of shot types we will
be using is an over the
shoulder shot to capture the
transgender character.
Another shot will be a long
shot of the affair storyline.
One Camera movement we
will be using is static as they
are still shots of each scene
with no movement. There will
also be high angle shots
incorporated in order to
portray the little importance
of some characters.

2. 2
2. The Leg of Mutton and Cauliflower
The reason we have chosen to film in this location is because
stereotypically in every soap there is a local pubwhere many
storylinestake place in, so therefore we are keeping the
stereotypical setting in place in order to keep the brand identity
of soap in our trailer.
3. Ashtead Common
Potential Hazards/Risks
Location specific -
Why?
How will this be resolved?
One potential risk for this location is that there are roads surrounding the
house so we will have to be highly aware of potential incoming traffic and
crossing the road. Another potential hazard is that there will most probably
be members of the public in our shots so we will have to ensure we have
their permission to be in our footage. Another thing we will have to arrange
is permission from the management of this pub to film in.
The main camera movement
that will be used in this
location is a panning shot of
the interior. We will be using
this to set the scene of our
trailer. The camera shot we
will be using is a long shot in
order to get the entire
interior in the trailer.
The camera movement at this
location will be static because
we are filming a still shot of
the dead body here. We will
be using a mid shot camera
shot as we will be filming the
body being covered up with a
blanket to hide the identity of
whose been killed.

3. 3
The reason we have chosen to use this location is because our
storylineincludessomeonebeing murdered so wethought this
was a suitable location to film wherethe body was dumped.
Potential Hazards/Risks
Location specific -
Why?
How will this be resolved?
When walking to the common from school we will have to cross several
roads so this is one potential risk we will have to be aware of. Another risk is
that members of our group might have allergies to the surroundings as well
as the common, such as hayfever so we will aslo have to be careful of this.
Another hazard we will have to take into consideration is members of the
oublic in the common and will have to inform them of us filming incase they
do not wish to appear in our trailer.
