AS Film Studies - Production Planning: Location Report

For my AS Film Studies project portfolio, following a textual analysis of two

Action/Adventure films; Divergent (2014 - US) and Skyfall (2012 UK) in
which I have explored and studied how both Directors, Neil Burger and
Sam Mendes, represent protagonists in their respective films, I have
continued to develop my portfolio by planning a creative artefact based
upon the ideas from my textual analysis. Therefore, I will implement their
attributes and philosophies, reflecting the codes and conventions of the
Action/Adventure genres and the main characters in them.

My intention is to create 9 key frames based in Action/Adventure genre,

based upon my Location Report here, consisting of two images, that show
the environment that I intend to use in other to create my artefact I chose
this location in other to be able to build up tension and make my 9 key
frames look as creditable as possible.

Location: Alleyway

My whole sequence will be in this dark

alleyway in Newbury Park. I have chosen this
location as accessible to film not just for me
but also for actor and my actress as is close to
school this will also mean that we dont have to
travel far and this is the
main thing that makes it
convenient for all of us. This location will also
help convey the idea of danger and mystery
in terms of cinematography will be using a
variety of different camera shots such as
medium close up, long shot and low angle to
help to build up tension. I have also chosen
this location as in terms of looks it has the
characteristics that I am looking for to incorporate in my 9 key frames.
