Set Photos


Here I am setting up the camera for one of the shots.






This is me and the lead actor, Simon, shooting one of the scenes. To create a high angle shot I held the camera connected to the tripod above my head.

Location Planning

All my characters are older teenagers that live in a town. Some scenes take place in some of the character's homes. I think that my own home, as well as my friend's, will be suitable to shoot in.


To establish the setting I need to shoot some footage of the town itself. These shots can be made on almost any road, so the planning doesn't need to be as in depth.
