When looking for location we focused our search on places that seemed to have a sense of both normality and mystery. This led us to deciding to film on sites similar to the one above. We chose this location because it is a typical average path meaning that the audience can identify the setting and relate it to their own experiences. The path is isolated as it is a small path on a steep hill suggesting that people only walk on this path in necessity. The isolation of the path to the main road shows separation from the wider world suggesting maybe this path is for people wanted to walk to be alone. The isolation of the path is one of the reasons why we liked this location as it fits the themes of a thriller movie. Isolated settings are vital in thriller movies as it helps to depict the characters as vulnerable and powerless. It creates tension and fear within the viewers as they associate isolated places as places where bad things could potentially happen, this creates suspense as the audience wait to see what will happen.
