Locations, hmmm?

Aside from the actual plot and character, finding locations to film is another aspect of planning that is very important. Setting in our plot is incredibly important, as it hints confusions and helps to establish the mysterious tone. So, I have been thinking of locations that would be possible to actually film.

The intro begins in an office where the character wakes up looking at the ceiling or his office-like surrounding. So, we need to find a location like this or that resembles this. I am thinking that we could film this part in the nurse's office at our school. Filming in a real office is improbable and the fact that the nurse's office is on campus provides easy access to actually film and gives us the opportunity to film something again if done incorrectly the first time. The other location that is important is the forest or park area that is necessary for the moment when the character wakes up for the second time. Markham Park is a huge park near our community that has many possible areas for filming. Since it so large, there are many areas that are secluded and easily creepy (and scary) at night. 

These locations are most likely the places that we will be filming at, since they are near and easy to access. Although it would've been better if the office were a therapist's office instead of a nurse's office, I think it still works for what we are going for and will convey the same message.
