Pre-Production: Stage 1 -- Location Scouting/Recce

We decided due to the pleasureful weather of that day, we would go location scouting for our location recce after out meeting.

Since we had just read the script we needed a suitable location for where the fight scene (the most prominent scene and where the majority of the film occurs) would be filmed. Preferably a wooded area.

For a suitable location it had to have the following attributes:


  • Not a lot of traffic (people walking through interrupting shots).
  • An adequate distance from roads and buildings (no noise interruptions from cars and people).
  • Had some wide space enough for a fight scene to be performed.


Since we are filming on campus, it was perfect to find a location as there is a plentiful wooded area right on the hill of the campus.

As another member of the group and I had explored this area before we already had in mind certain locations in the forested area to be used for filming.

The area we scouted is located here:



The forest area by the University Road (51.294049, 1.067596)









Below are pictures I had taken of the location:
