Location Shots

These photographs were taken by Ryan Mills and Sam Rogerson, both members of my production group.





All of these images were taken down Elm Hill in Norwich. We chose this particular location for our Thriller opening because it is quite a dark, narrow street meaning that crime could easily happen there. Also, the cobbled road is appropriate for our Film Noir genre- it is something that was inspired by the streets in The Third Man. The bars across the bottom of the church window could also show entrapment or imprisonment. The lack of lighting may be a problem, so when shooting, we must ensure to bring bright torches; This aspect is crucial for creating surgery. The old houses down Elm Hill are also very suitable for the genre. Ideally, we would like the cobbled road to be wet, something generic of the thriller genre, however the light that reflects off of the road creates the illusion of a wet street.
