Location choice

The location we have chosen to shoot the scenes for our coursework in is an esate block. The main reason we decided on this location is because it complies with the stereotype of a troubled teenager in London nowadays making the storyline easier to relate to with the audience. As we are using the idea of a teenager in a crime world the estate location is clearly a good one to use the stereotype and back up the image of his troubled life. Another reason why we chose an estate block is because it is a tall building and as we want the boy to be watching a man in the street from a distance a room high up in an estate fits the bill perfectly. This therefore allows us to do over the shoulder shots through the window to show the man in the street from the teenagers point of view and create the stalking affect.

In terms of practicallity the estate idea also suits us aswell, the main reason for this is that a member of our group lives in an estate block in white city, therefore meaning we can easily use this as our location. This also means we dont need to ask for any permission to do our filming because we are on our members property. This then makes it a lot easier for us to then do the filming.

Overall we have chosen an estate block for our location because it suits our storyline and adds to the teenager in London idea and is also easy to use and shoot at, making it an ideal location for our group to use.
