Location Ideas

I thought long and hard for the perfect locations for my Opening. I finally came to the idea that I wanted places that were very simple. I need an open land space and a house. I have chosen to film my opening sequence on the back roads to Durham. I have chosen this as it is very scenic, it is a quiet area with not many people at all (which ultimately makes filming a lot easier due to lack of interruption) and it's not chaotic or full of buildings. It's just paths and fields and trees. For the part of filming where I want it to be set in a house took a lot of thought also. As my film is set in the 90's, I wanted somewhere rather dated and not as modern. It's quite difficult finding a house in this day and age that has that feel and look about it as every ones houses are up to date and very modern. I carried on thinking until I came up with the idea of using my own house. I only need to use the hallway and kitchen. The hallway is very simply decorated with nothing majorly modern, making it easy for me to alter it and make it look different. The kitchen hasn't been decorated for a while and I have been giving permission to remove anything that ruins the image, and make it look older looking. I am also using a fog machine, to give a cloudy look to the party as there will be people 'smoking'and 'drinking' at the party.
