WHY IS THIS LOCATION SUITABLE FOR YOUR PROJECT?

The mise en scene of the location is suitable for the lifestyle and the advert I am trying to portray, with
the idea of getting ready in the morning in the bathroom, putting on the deodorant. It will add to the
concept of ‘day in the life’ I am portraying in my advert.

TOP 3 RISKS IDENTIFIED ON LOCATION

(N.B. this does not replace the Risk Assessment form which must be carried out for any practical
project)

Describe the aesthetics of the location (e.g. Describe the potential camera shots or describe the
acoustic value of the location)

Using the location, specifically the bathroom, it will give the realistic impression of a morning routine
taking place. In the bathroom I will be able to create over the shoulder shots, with effects of close ups
on the mirror. The indoor lighting will provide the effect of it taking place at a different time of day,
which can present the idea of it passing time. The bathroom has enough space to be able to create
some medium long shots, therefore presenting the mise en scene of the area and the actor involved.
