Today we were able to finally scout out a location for one our scenes. Since we were able to plan everything out, we had some ideas of where we wanted to film our scenes. Of course these are all places that we've visited before so we had an idea of how it would turn out. However, for the scene where the main character gets kidnapped, we didn't have an absolute location where we wanted to film. We asked around to see if any of our friends knew of places that had the description we were looking for. Turns out one of our mutual friends knew of a place that was around 30 minutes away from our houses. We decided that today was a great day to go and see it. Since we need to film at this location, we need to make sure that filming is permitted. We did a little bit of research and found out that it's considered public property so filming was okay. We really wanted this location to work out because it matched the description almost perfectly.
When we arrived to the location we were disappointed. It turns out that the location no longer exists. Granted, our friend hadn't recently been there so we all expected to see it. This whole time we've been depending on this location because we would be filming the most important scene. The scene would be the climax of the film where the twist of revealing the character's true intentions happens. We didn't think this would happen so we didn't plan to have a second location. We need to think of another location fast. Our deadline is coming up and we want to have as much time as possible to edit our short film. Hopefully in the upcoming days we will have a location to film at. If not, I don't know what we're gonna do.
