Location

Today the team and I discussed the various locations that were necessary for filming. Although a majority of the scenes are set in a domestic environment, we wanted to focus on the scenes where we were filming beyond the comfort of our homes. This led us to consider regions in London that could reflect our narrative. To investigate the areas further the team and I explored the different regions, and photographed a number of sites from several angles. This helped us to decide which angles embraced distinct connotations that related to the different character.

For example, we concluded that Camden Town reflected the personality of the 'Punk' character.


The Gym supported the 'Arrogant' character's egotistical attitude.


Finally the Library emphasised the 'Nerd's' hobbies.


As we arranged to stage the dating scenes at a speed dating convention, we found that it would be problematic if we filmed at a factual event. It is for this reason that the team and I have decided to simulate our own convention at a member's residence. However, this can only be accomplished if drastic changes were made to the setting of the rooms.
