2.  To ensure that each member of the group was able to have
an input in the location decision we decided the best form of
gathering ideas would be to create a brainstorm with ideas
given from each member of the group.

4.  After producing the brainstorm we were able to select the
top three from the list, these were:
 An Abandoned School
 A House
 The Park
 After discussion between the group and consultation with
our teacher the location we decided on was an old house. We
felt that this would best suit our genre and would be easily
accessible for us as a group.

5.  As we have now made our decision to shoot in a house the
question was where. As our genre was a horror/thriller we
knew that we wanted the house to have a sense of mystery
behind it. The decision was then made that we would use my
nans house as all members of the group had been there
before and agreed that it would be appropriate for our
genre. This Victorian styled house is made up of thirteen
rooms in total. It is located on a main road which allowed us
to gain easy access for filming.

6.  The next stage was to go to our chosen location and capture
some location shots as part of our planning and research. We
also had the task of deciding which rooms we would be using
within the house, to shoot.

14.  We have decided to film in three rooms of the house these
are the following: the cellar, a bedroom (upstairs) and the
lounge. We will also be filming in both the upstairs and
downstairs corridors.
