Filming Locations

To make our opening sequence as good as possible, we carefully considered the places where it could take place. The location is most important in scenes where most of our filming occurs because it is the location that our audience will see the most. The quick shots are not as important in terms of location as these are not shown for very long. 


As we only needed to film in a couple of locations we were able to film most of our opening sequence in one go.  We chose to film at our school in Paulls house, which is the girls boarding house in the downstairs changing room and bathroom because it has a big mirror which allows you to see yourself full-length and a long, narrow corridor which we could film our actress, Miranda walking down. We used this narrow corridor to make it seem like she is on her own, but she isn't because the 'evil' girl is following her. We were able to film practically all the shots because it was so relevant to our plot line.

The final set of filming that we did was outside in the evening. This is because it is dark, which gives a more tense atmosphere as you cant see much and you feel vulnerable. Therefore we felt it was the perfect time to film. Here we filmed all of the outside shots, including all the panning shots and the shot with the shadows.
