Description of scene you intend to film in this location:

The character Elisa will be walking home listening to music. She enters
her house cautiously, as to make sure that she isnt heard if anyone is
home, and makes her way to her room. When she enters, she sees that
everything has been destroyed so she packs up what remains of her
belongings then receives a call from the character Mila. After the call
ends, a car can be heard pulling into the driveway of her house and when
someone enters through the front door, she jumps out of her window and
escapes.
Lighting level:
The location is inside so the lighting can be easily manipulated to create
different effects and moods. To best fit the thriller genre, we will be filming
during the evening so that its dark outside.
Noise level:
The area is often quiet during the evening which helps with the latter half
of the opening sequence as well be using much more diegetic sound.
Potential hazards:
Well be using the window to pretend that someone is jumping out of it.
This is a potential hazard as the window is located on the second floor
however, we have discussed the precautions that we will take when doing
this.
Overall suitability:
Overall, this location is semi-suitable. The noise level is perfect for the
evening when its not at all busy which will make filming easier and the
lighting will be easy to manipulate because most of the production is set
inside however, the potential hazards are higher than wed like them to be

because the room well be using is located on the second floor when
ideally, it should be on the first
