Man Without A Movie Camera... Location, Location, Location

So with our script now completed, we have titled the film Man Without A Movie Camera, a homage to Dziga Vertov's masterpiece from 1929, Man With A Movie Camera (below), although it is nothing like it except for the title. So it was time for preparation. Although, I was eager to delve in to the script and pick apart what I could do in the sound department, locations were a must as we needed a car park for our film. Even though Mike (our teacher) had suggested against using one, due to problems with security in the past, we were determined to find one with a good backdrop that would look cinematic in our short.



Me and Gustav (Follow Him!) went on a look for locations near our house, with a list of the scenes, Gus' iphone, a pen and paper. We came back with good results, thinking about transportation on the day we kept everything within safe distance of our house, as we decided to use it as our base and a location. We now have 2 possibilities for car park locations, which we have to inquire about on Monday, as well as a computer shop on our road.
