Locations

Our locations for the film are very few in total but finding them and having them fit the feel of the film has been more difficult. The scenes that require separate locations are the main house, a street,

The following pictures are of the house that we will be using;

From inside the study
The study is not a location seen very much within the film
yet it may be visable from the scenes within the kitchen.
From outside the study
The study may also be used near the end where Ivy runs upstairs as
she sees Beth downstairs, this is where she may come from.
Dining room and living room
The dining room is where Ivy will sit when her mother is questioning
her about her nightmares, she may face away from
the living room or facing it.
and again
The living room is where we will see Beth when Ivy runs away from her.
Dining table and kitchen
The kitchen is where Ivy's mother will be preparing her
lunch in the morning and speaking on the phone.
Front living room
The front living room is not used very often during the film
but it will be seen when Ivy come downstairs
in the morning to the kitchen
Stairs to second level leading from front living room
From the top of the stairs during one of the nightmare scenes you
 will be able to see the light pouring from the
 small bedroom to signify its safety.

Landing at top of stairs
The landing which leads to her mothers bedroom will be seen
at the very end of of the film in the scene with beth and also
 slightely seen when her mother knocks on
 the door of the bedroom.

Small bedroom (closet) to the right of the Landing
This is the room where Ivy hides during her nightmares,
at one point we will have lght pouring out of this
room to show it is her safe place

Inside of the small bedroom (closet)
she sits upon the small bed right behind the door with her
 back against the wall

Bathroom to the left of the landing
Out of this room and her mothers room lights will also be shown
 with faded colours to represent how
 she feels about each room .

Large bedroom at the end of the Landing
This door will also show a muted light.
Beth's bedroom and the very top of the stairs to the left
This room is only seen when she passes it on the way to
 hiding in the small bedroom. It gives a
 clue to who she is being haunted by.


Our other locations are mainly very simple other than the need for a school. The main other being a street where we see flowers left at a streetlight, this was very easy to find as the location of the house had some perfect 'neighbourhood' looking locations that would give the idea that you would not expect something like this to happen here.


Our last location was the school which was difficult to get permission from but as we were not shooting during school time they graciously allowed us to shoot at my old primary school which has an excellent community feel to it, which again makes the viewer think 'how is this going unoticed'
