Romford Shopping Centre

Romford Shopping centre is going to be used to film the voxpops for the documentary. The reason in which i have chosen this location is because the shopping centre has hundreds of people inside it every day and a lot of the people are of the age range i am interested in interviewing for the voxpop. I will go to this location during the day on a weekend when it is most busy with people, and at night as young adults will be heading out clubbing at this time.

The travel will not cost me or the crew any money as we all have oyster cards that allow us to travel on busses for free. The location is approximately 20 minutes away from our starting location and could go up to 40 minutes if there is traffic. But in the worst case scenario the location is still in walking disdains, making it a reliable and promising location to film a large amount of people.

Bedroom 1 (Male partisipent)

The male participant will be myself and the reason behind using my bedroom as the location of the case study documentary is because it is a realistic location where teenagers would stay up late. I would be fully aware of all hazards and be more comfortable in a environment i am very familiar with. The bedroom is the location the the house a teenager would spend most time, or at least i do personally, therefore i think it would allow the audience to relate to the study more personally as well as making the participant (myself) feel more relaxed in the environment.


As this location is inside of my own house there will be no need to travel, this is very good for me as any far disdains i would have to rely on other people to transport me as i would be taking part in the case study that could have major effects on my reaction time, causing multiple hazard in the street such as crossing the road safely.

Bedroom 2 (Female participant)

The Female participant will be recorded inside her own bedroom for the case study as i said perviously in the male bedroom, it would make the participant feel more relax during the study as well as more aware of all the hazards in the environment they need to be careful of during the experiment. The audience should also get a better connection to the subject at hand as the running theme of bedrooms relates back to the typical location in which teenagers lodge around at their own homes. It also adds the bonus of having a bed in a majority of shots and plenty of cut aways to objects in the room.

As the recordings for the case study is done in a Video log ( Vlog ) style i will not need to be in the location to film the female participant. She will be filming herself resulting in no travel requirements. This makes the production much smoother and easier to capture all necessary footage.

Dining Room (interviews with experts)

The dinning room i will be recording in will be for the house of the Nurse. This was not my original option of location as i would have preferred their office or workspace but as i was asking them out of their own free time they requested that we would film at their house. They still would be wearing their uniform so the higher authority power should still be captured during the interview scenes to make the interview look legitimate and trustworthy. The location is the dinning room of the Nurse's house and the GP will also be interviewed in the same location due to the GP and Nurse knowing each other. This saves transport costs, although there is none. The location is in walking distance of a 15 minute walk from my house.

The layout of the dinning room will be quite fitting as i have a lot of cutaways i could do with the shelfs either side of the table, and the table is nicely centred to lay out the tripod in multiple possession of the interview.
