Possible Locations
! For our media production our group researched and investigated various locations and buildings to possibly use within our final music video.
! We felt that this ‘scouting’ stage was important as it enabled our project to take shape around a set and for our production ideas to develop using the resources at the location we decide.
! We weighed up the pro’s and con’s for our specific locations allowing for our group to make a appropriate decision of where we would like to base our project.

Location 1 – Severalls Assylum, Colchester
! Severalls Assylum is 150 acre plot which opened in 1913 as a hospital for those with mental health problems. The hospital is a fine example of the architectural echelon design which features long corridors which were designed to interconnect within the entire site.

Using Google maps we worked out that it would take us 2 hours on a round trip to get there and back.

Location 2 – Rougham Hall, Rougham
! Rougham Hall is a large Manor house which was owned by the Agnew family which during WWII a large 2000lb bomb landed near and destroyed its foundations. The house has laid derelict since. Nature has now quickly taken over and a mass of greenery encapsulates its interior. We really like the contrast built in this location between nature and destruction.

To get to Rougham Hall it is only a maximum of 40 minutes to get in a car from my residence.
