Location Scouting - WIP

Below are some of the various locations that we scouted out for the opening.

Parks

Sunray Gardens - Dulwich






Overall I really like this location because of a couple of features. Firstly the swing in the centre of it is very bare bones and would look fantastic (although the underlying bright green mat may be an issue). secondly the alleyway at the back of it could be used in place of the original proposal of a tunnel as half way down it theres a lamppost that would provide some very effective lighting for the conclusion of the opening. It is also fairly small and so there shouldn't be so many people around and so the shots we need shouldn't be too hard to achieve as we want to emphasise  the isolation of the girl in the opening and this lack of people would achieve it.

Shillington Park 

This is the location we eventually went with because of the tunnel that it had in one corner of the path and the presence of a swing set in the children's playground. In addition to this it was somewhat out of the way and so not many people were present when we were filming. In contrast Sunray Gardens was in a central location and is often filled with younger families and so filming would have been more difficult that we first thought. Secondly the swing set in Sunray Gardens wasn't quite what we were looking for.
