2. As the producer, I assigned the editor the role of looking for locations. When
discussing the kind of locations we wanted to use for our trailer, we decided we
wanted it to be a modern take on Little Red Riding Hood. The thriller genre
generally uses very old grotesque locations, so we decided to keep this the same,
in order to keep the genre apparent and also to appeal to our audience.
We also wanted to use a forest within our trailer, to keep the fairytale similar to
the original story. So we looked at many different locations which have forests such
as Streatham Hill, Clapham Common. We then looked into which of these locations
had a path within the forest and found they both did. We then decided to use
Streatham because we felt it had a larger forest and also the trees within this forest
were much more grand than that of Clapham Common. We looked closely at the
forest’s we looked at the path in apparent because this is very important to the
opening of our trailer.
In addition to locations, we needed a Victorian style house, we looked at brixton in
particular because we felt it had houses which we of this style and not too far for
our filming team to get to. We looked at houses which were free to use, which
would only require permission without cost because it would not fit into our
budget. As the producer I felt, I should have taken into consideration the cost of
locations and added this to our budget because it would have given us more
variety of locations to use.

3. Location: Brixton Library
Why we chose this location:
We choose this location because we
liked the work of the library, we felt it
would fit perfectly into our storyline
because it has an older type feel to the
library. we felt that when looking for
locations we needed a house which
was rather grotesque and had a gothic
feel to the location. We couldn’t use
this location because it didn’t have a
room we could use for the grandma
scene. Through this location it became
apparent the style of house we need
to use, it became an outline for the
type of house we need to use.
I made sure that when I sent the location manager out that this building was the outline for the
type of building we were looking for. I particularly liked the work on this building and felt that it
will be perfect for our trailer because it feed to the gothic aspect of our genre. I felt through
editing we could exaggerate the mystical aspect of this house.

4. Location: Brixton St Matthew’s Church
Why we chose this location:
We chose this location because we felt it
would fit into the church scene. We wanted
to find locations that would fit exactly into
our story line. I liked the staircase in this
location and felt this would be effective if
we wanted to create a mythical, gothic
genre. I liked the fact that the work on this
building is rather old, I didn’t want to loose
the ancient feel of the fairytale.
I wanted to use a location which had an ancient feel to it because I felt that it would help
create our genre. I liked this location because of the staircase and I felt we could manipulate
this when filming or through editing. I felt that this location was a bit too modern for our
production because it had metal railing appose to wooden ones which would emphasize the
ancient feel. With this location I felt it didn’t exactly fit into our trailer exactly because we
couldn't’ really use this location.

5. Location: Streatham St Leonard’s Church
Why we chose this location:
We chose this location because we liked the grave
stones and the architecture on the windows and
the way the tree comes into the fore front of the
church. This location was exactly what we were
looking for when it came to a church. We liked the
fact the church was not so large because we felt it
would make the audience feel more involved in the
scene we will use the church for.
I liked the gravestones in particular. I felt this would fit perfectly into the thriller genre as it
would create a very gothic scary atmosphere. I liked the way in which the location was very
small I felt it would be effective in making the audience feel involved in the trailer. I felt if the
church was larger it would be harder to create a gothic atmosphere. We decided to use this
location because it fit perfectly into our story line also through editing we could manipulate
the grave stones and make them more scary. In addition to this, I liked where the location
was, it was not on a busy high street and it would help reduce noise pollution when filming.
Furthermore this location was rather easy to get to, and also would help reduce
transportation costs.
