Location

We decided as a group a number of different locations to shoot for our A Level film trailer.

Grave yard

Our first location was St Andrews Church in Maghull, this was an ideal location as it is dark, erie atmosphere fitted in with the theme of out trailer 'Psychological Horror' In order for us to legally be allowed to film in this locat there we needed permission from the Church Parish. A member from our group sent an email explaining the reason we needed to film there and what were filming. We got a response allowing us to film there.





Cafe

Our second Location was the Costa Coffee in Ormskirk. for a scene in our trailer we needed to use a cafe we chose Costa Coffee in Ormskirk as it is a quite area so we knew that we wouldnt be interupting anybody, and the style of the cafe fitted in with what we were looking for.
Again we were legally required to gain permission to film there, we spoke to the manager of the cafe and she gave us permission to film there, she was also happy to sigh our contributor's release form.





Train Station

Our third location was Maghull train station we chose this trainstation as it was in our area, it also fitted in with the style that we were looking for.
We asked the attendent that was duty if it was ok for us to film she gave us verbal permission on the basis that we did not film any passengers of Merseytravel.




House

Our forth location was one of the members of our groups house. This was perfect for what we needed as she had a long hallway attached to the kitchen ideal for a key scene in our trailer and the perfect sized, spaced bathroom.
We gained permission from her herself and also by her parents who signed a contributor's release form.









Alleyway

Another location was an Alleyway in Maghull. This was perfect as it fitted in with the style of our trailer it was dark, cold and mysterious. We did not need permission from anyone as it is public property.

Field

We also chose the Field/park for another part of our trailer we felt that this fitted in with the happy, warm, friendly theme we were going for in part of our trailer. We didn't need permission to film in this location as it is public property.

House 2

We used this location for the physiatrist part of our scene we felt that the location was perfect. We gained permission for the filming from the the girl's who house it was and who was also part of our team.

Country Lane

We used this location as we felt that the dark, creepy, coldness of the road and open spaces fitted with the theme that we were going for. We didn't need permission to film in this location as it is public property.
