Here are some location shots at Mapledurham church. As the theme in my video was death I thought that it was important to include scenes with the church and also in the graveyard. The location was very good to use as it fitted in with my theme, there was good use of space and also it was very assessable. When looking at the grave yard I noticed that there were different types of graves and also some were at different time periods, I thought that this could be something that I could entwine in my video.
When planning where I would film my video, I did some exploring around the area and found that there were a lot of country roads, in my story boarding I had already envisioned filming through country roads and paths and these were perfect for the video.
This is another angle of the church, I did not capture an image of the gates that enable access to the church, but if I had taken this photograph from a further away I would have been able to, however as soon as I saw these gates I knew I wanted to use them as they were very rusty and captured the theme of my video.
The image below is of the inside of the church, when choosing my location for my video I thought that I might incur some problems with filming in certain places, however once I had decided that this location was the right one I asked permission from the Priest a week before hand, I told him what day, what time I would be coming and roughly how long it would take. When I went to visit the church for the first time I noticed how dark the lighting was, even when it was daylight, this planning was very beneficial to me as I was then able to find extra lighting equipment.
