Today we went around Bath filming our locations as they will play a main part in our film. We came up with 8 different locations, being; Helting Close near Bath Spa, Railway Close Tunnel near the railway station, Walcot Street staircase- leading to Roman Road, Sydney Gardens riverside, The Royal Crescent, The Circus, Laura Place fountain and the new Southgate shopping centre. We decided on these 8 locations because they were the less obvious places to choose but still promoted Bath in a way which would make potential film makers want to produce their films in our city. I feel that the locations that we have chosen to shoot our film in should be successful as they show the beauty and the architecture of Bath, yet not using the most popular landmarks of the city.

Today I wasn't here but the class were introduced to suited and booted film company and the Bath film office. Sarah Strickland gave us our brief to work from.

We needed to make a 3 minute film advertising Bath, representing the theme gothic. They brainstormed ideas fitting the brief and came up with the idea of a lost woman searching for her love. As a group they decided for it to be a silent film with dialogue boxes and to be shot in colour but edited in black and white.
