Location Shots

We filmed our main task in an abandoned mill in Ancoats. As a group we felt this would be a huge influence for our "mise-en-scence", as we wanted to create a dirty/gritty affect to the film. We also liked the mysterious and earey feel the location had. We felt our audience would be clearly be able to see that this was a unpleasent enviroment and also quite scary which relates clearly to our films genre and opening.

Arriving

To get to our desired location it was quite a struggle as there wasn't a clear path. We had to climb over trees and branches on a unstable surface.

Outside View

We had a single tilt location shot of the mill to achieve a sense of isolation and to indicate to our audience that the film would take place in an earey enviroment. From this shot the audience dosen't know what events are about to follow. This gives them a limited perspective.

Inside View

The majority of our filming took place inside the mill. As you can see the inside looked abandoned and possibly fire damaged. We saw this as a huge advantage as this created a very dark and gritty mise-en-scene. The audience can clearly identify that nice things dont happen here and sets them up for the events that follow.
