Location Scouting - Tunnel


We went out to scout for locations that we might use within the scenes of our trailer; we focused on finding secluded areas for our killers, and tunnels for the groups to meet in.

The first location we visited was near Odeon, Greenwich, just across the bridge. The area is quiet enough that we would be able to frequently visit it if we were to film here, and the graffiti gives us the 'edge' that we need; either for fast shots or to establish certain scenes.


We found two different tunnel areas that we could film in; the first (pictured above) was initially what we planned to go with, but after staying there for a while to take pictures, we realised it had more pedestrians walking through than would be practical for us to be able to film prolonged shots in. It would be difficult to film for extended amounts of time as people would be constantly walking through.




We found a second tunnel with hardly any people walking through. The area was essentially empty, meaning that we could easily film for hours without too much disruption; it was almost identical to the one we initially wanted, and the lights were much brighter, so we could even shoot at night or in the dark and still capture high quality footage without too much trouble. 
We decided that this tunnel would be our main location to shoot footage of the group as a whole, whereas the graffiti backdrop would be useful for maybe a few shots, either of the killing taking place, or to establish an atmosphere of certain characters.
