Blocking
The first place I have chosen to film is the living room in Chris’ house. The main reasons that influenced my choice were that the lighting can be easily changed, because the windows have thick curtains that block most of the sunlight and there are a range of lights where the brightness can be changed to suit the scene. As well as this, it’s quite an open space so many different angles and camera positions can be chosen. It also has a large mirror which is essential for the shots capturing Chris talking and posing in the mirror. Also suitable mise en scene can be placed around the room due to the fact that it is quite open and has lots of shelves and other storage places. This room will be used to film the shots of Chris exercising and talking to Glen as well as the mirror shots.
The second place I will film is an alleyway in South Woodham Ferrers. This is because it has many different turnings which could potentially be used to film in. As well as this, it will be easier to film in than other alleyways due to the fact that it is not very busy and few people walk through it.
The third place is in Chris’ garage. This is because he has a garage door which is easy to lift and open as well as the fact that he has a punch bag which can be used for the shots involving it.
