Location- Sophie and Emmie

When we started planning our thriller, the location was very important as it sets the scene and also it’s establishing the shot. We can up with many ideas for location , we came up for some ideas for filming in an a banned  warehouse and  train track  we didn’t use in the end as we thought they wasn’t appropriate for our storyline and also we thought that it was out of the public eye so it wasn’t very realistic. We decide to film by the canal as the scene as there were many arcs if tress and woodlands also it is in a public area so the audience can relate to the character also we thought this would be a good place to film a stalker sequence.



Canal bridge

 As we are doing an establishing shot to set the scene, the first image of the bridge is where number characters will be standing on the bridge train spotting, this immediately sets the scene and the audience can relate to such place. The bridge by the canal will be a very important shot, as it is the first shot that the audience see.

Canal Riverside

The main location in our opening sequence will be the footpath alongside the canal and this is where the stalk will take place. Most stalker thrillers take place in a dark, secluded place so this is why we choose the canal for the main action to happen. During our thriller sequence we wanted to stick to the traditional stereotypes and use this as one of our conventions. Although there will still be passes by, this location will be fairly rural so is perfect for filming.


On the day we took pictures on the day of filming to show evidence that we created this thriller ourselves, also we have taken images to show the location on where we filmed and also the characters who took part in the thriller.
