Location Recce Here are the two locations I chose to film my Rom Com opening. The location I found were fairly easy to access and I didn’t have much problem however there were certain aspects I had trouble controlling. Location 1 – Protagonists Bedroom I used my own bedroom as the protagonist’s bedroom. Showing the lead female characters bedroom. This would be easy for me to execute as I can control aspects like noise level, due to it being my own home. Location 2- The Park The park is the location where the female protagonist goes to meet her friend Liam. This is where she is introduced to his girlfriend Katie. A park is where young people are likely to meet this is conventional of teenagers to socialise in an area like a park therefore this location is perfect. Location Difficulties
How I can overcome them
1. Too much noise at the park can affect my filming drastically.
I can film at a later time when parks are less busy such as early morning around 7.00am and since its summer the weather is improving making it bright early.
2. I have to control lighting in both the park and my bedroom or again this could affect my 2 minute opening.
I would have to film when it’s not too bright or add a fake light e.g. LED to add lighting affect.
3. While filming in the park I have to careful I don’t film anyone else.
In order to avoid filming strangers in the background, again I would have to film at a early morning slot to avoid this issue.
