I only have to ask ask for permission for one location, as my others are out in the public. I am fortunate as my request has been accepted and also the the times in which i suggested have also been agreed. This location is perfect for my filming, as due to the fact the business will be closed, i will be able to manipulate the layout of the furniture and brightness of the lighting in order to enhance my shots. I also have the choice to include extras to add to the realism whoever if they take attention away from my protagonist i can simply eliminate them, this is something i would have no control over if the establishment was open. The reason why i chose this bar opposed to any other one in my area is because it is quirky and has a more casual feel opposed to an upmarket flashy bar. I have purposely done this as my protagonist is working class, therefore this location appears to be more suited to her which will increase the realism of my trailer. The location is also extremely versatile as there is a spacious upstairs seating area, therefore i can film a various range of shots in it.
I sent this email well in advance of my shooting schedule, this is because Megan works full time so therefore her free time is really restricted. However she got back to me and we were able organize time slots where we are both available and can get some filming done. I chose Megan as she is 20, however looks quite significantly older as a result of this she will fit the profile of my protagonist. She has done modeling in the past, this is beneficial for me as it will eliminate and shyness in front of the camera and also she is likely to be able to pull different facial expressions depending on the mood i intend to portray. Because i am friends with Megan, it will make filming a lot easier as we will be more comfortable around each other and able to discuss ideas which will benefit the outcome but also point out if there's anything which may disrupt the final product in a constructive manner.
