Locations

Once we had come up with the idea for our horror trailer, we had to think about the locations we could use to make it possible. We had initially thought of changing the idea of the woods to someone we thought would be more scary and use an abandoned house on the Army Barracks. This idea was quickly change back to the original of the woods however, as it was just too dangerous for us to go to the Army Barracks.
We chose to use the Kings mill woods to shoot in investigation around the area of where the girl died. This was a public place, making it easy for us to access and easy to get the filming done quickly. We did however, have to go at a time where the woods would not be busy with people dog walking, This meant we had to go there when it was dark, but this worked out well for us as it added tension and made it have a scarier feel to it.
We then decided to shoot the rest of the trailer at one of the group members houses. We chose to shoot at Beth's house as the layout of her house worked out well for some of the shot ideas we had and wanted to us. It also worked well as her family members were away meaning we could get all the filming done easily.

I have taken some pictures of the locations we used:
