Thriller progress - Hurtwood

We have finally decided that we are going to continue with our idea of the supermarket however there have been some complications with how we are able to find a supermarket or a mini market that we are able to film in.

To do this we would have to close down the store so we could create the scene which involves trashing some areas and making it look a bit like a wreckage. As a result of this the owner of the building would loose his sales and unfortunately no one that we know of owns a market or knows anyone who owns a mini market.


So as a result of this we have had to come up with a different location and setting for our Thriller.
Together we have produced a spider diagram or some areas that we could film in to create a similar atmosphere.

As we decided that a lot of these we thought could really work and so we've decided to pick a couple of really efficient and realistic options that we can use.


One location that we discovered that could definitely work would be the pub, as one of my group members Georgina has an uncle who owns a pub in 'Fleet Street' which is perfect as it is very central and built up, however on a Sunday morning in particular it will hopefully be quite which would be a prime time to film a variety of areas like the street view, park and other area's that we are yet to find around there. This would be possible as the pub is closed on both a Saturday and Sunday giving us two possible days to work on if there are any issues.



Ye Olde Cock Tavern
22 Fleet Street
London EC4Y 1AA

Some images that I found off of Google give us an idea of what the pub looks like from the outside and in:


As you can see from the image, the pub feels very warm and homely and also people who have been there have said that 'you can almost taste that it is old' which is the kind of atmosphere that we want and this will effectively work to our advantage of getting a musty, uncomfortable feel when filming.

Personally I hope to be able to get the chance to go up to Fleet Street some time soon so that I can get a better visual understanding of the pub and also see what it is really like early on a Sunday morning.
