Location and Set Design

When we decided to film, we knew we were going to have to film off site.
We originally planned to film at Alice's house and the forest behind it, but on the day we scheduled to film, it wasn't possible.
So, as ALice and I live locally, we knew of some forestry nearby, so in our Monday free period, we went here and shot the footage of the train, prison gate, pond and running scene.

We filmed the board and dark room scene and bag scene at college, for convenience because we were limited for time. However with the exception of the bag scene, they were indoor shots, so we chose suitable locations within the college.

The forestry we chose was was suitable because there was a river nearby and a train track and random scenery. The location looks quite scary but was a good location to film, as there was more going on in the scenery than just tree's and bushes.

In the indoor scenes, it isn't particularly noticeable that it was filmed inside the college. We had the idea of using the darkroom in random conversation one day, it wasn't originally planned, but made the film a lot better. It linked the storyline and made it a bit more interesting.
