Location possibilities

For the location of our film, I have researched a few options based on where influences of ours are situated and where films I enjoy are of our genre are located , as we want our film to be located somewhere relatable and realistic that allows the genre and mood to accurately be portrayed. These are images taken from the internet and in a later post I will add photographs of our actual location.
Option 1
Area that accurately portrays Britain and British culture, for example streets that could depicting the doing of British youth, an iconic area such as London or something associated with the British class devision we are representing. Used in films such as 'This is England' and 'Fish tank'.



Option 2
A realistic location that is relatable to everyone, for example a simplistic location such someones home, a school or an area that is used in mass such as the tube station. Used in films such as 'Kidulthood' and 'The Secret Window'.


Option 3
Areas of work that may not be relatable on a personal level to all, but will still carry certain stigma and provoke a strong emotional reaction. They may be relatable due to personal experience or through media coverage and word of mouth. For example a hospital, police station or courtroom. Used in 'Chan
geling' and 'This is England'.



Option 4
Outdoor areas that create a sense of unknown and potential threat, with little protection and often a sense of hopelessness. These areas may sometimes be isoltaed locations, adding to the idea of being completely vulnerable. For example motorways, parks and woodland areas. Used in 'The Condition' and 'About a girl'.
