What follows are some production still I have been taking, from various locations with a brief description of the frame.
This was the smoke machine test we conducted within the first and primary location for our shooting, the flat, it got so smokey we did set the smoke alarm off; luckily for us no-one said or did anything, good old student accommodation. We spent the majority of our time that day setting up for the next day, set dressing mainly accompanied by several props everyone had brought around that we thought we might tie into the story; i.e. the Tibetan Book of the Dead, colourful and patterned fabric, dream-catchers and so-on.
We did some green screen tests in the same location and they turned out to be so perfect in terms of framing that we decided to use them in our final edit, partly because we got the suit after we got the performance studio booked and to get both at the same time would be to have your cake and eat it. Jacob sourced it from the firestation museum he has worked at for the past few years, it worked spectacularly well as a replacement for the last suit we used...
This was in the Warehouse location that myself and Rob discovered one day whilst location scouting and generally exploring near his apartment. It looked highly dis-used besides graffitti and even had some genuinely good graffitti on the way in, an old Phlegm piece as well. The floor was dirty to say the least and the walls were crumbling away around us so we had to be careful to put it mildly, let alone with all our heavy equipment. You can clearly see in this shot Jordan using his Home-made Fig-Rig, which proved to be utterly indispensable when panning around a room and made every shot we used it for notable more stable.
