EVIDENCE OF PLANNING

- LOCATIONS

Filming Location 1- Home (Living Room)

My Home’s Living Room was the location I recorded the ‘Pre-Asteroid Panic’ Scene. I chose my Home’s Living Room due to the fact that it fits within the context of the narrative, as Shane’s creating a ‘Day in the Life of’ vlog, so a home would be a realistic place for him to film it. It was also a room that creates a warming feel, with use of bright colours (mise-en-scene) like yellow and white to show the warmth between the characters. It also allowed me to use mise-en-scene in terms of proximity, to elaborate, Shane is closest to Ray, then Travis, then Zoey, this is show the closeness within their relationships, so it can be interpreted that: Ray is Shane’s closest friend and Zoey is the most distant. Finally, the large Television was perfect for airing the ‘News Report’.

Filming Location 2- Chilton Road

Chilton Road was the location I recorded the ‘News Report’ Scene. I chose Chilton Road because it was a location that created an atmospheric feel, it was also a realistic place for a news report to be filmed.

Filming Location 3- Purdis Heath

Purdis Heath is the location I recorded the ‘Pre-Evacuation’ Scene. I chose this location because it juxtaposes the ‘Pre-Asteroid Panic’ scene, it does this by contrasting the disequilibrium of running through a forest and the equilibrium of a normal day at home.
