We spent a long time choosing the locations to use for our film as we wanted to keep them within the conventions of a thriller. We filmed at three locations but only two of these made it into the final film.
We decided that we wanted to use a large suburban house as our location for the protagonists house as this is a common setting in a thriller. The house would be used as the location for the murder. This can be seen in films such as 'Scream' when the first victims house is a large, isolated house in the suburbs. We managed to find a location by using a group members relatives house.
Our second location was a small Café in a town which would be where the deal would take place. However, this did not work out and is not in the final film as we did not feel it had the right look for the overall theme of the thriller.
Our final location was an alleyway in an urbanised area, which we felt had a better feel to it for a deal to take place. We used this location as it was easy to get to and was also near the school in case we had to do some last minute shooting.
