Locations i considered but didn't use:
In the first shot where the girl is walking down the hall, i had thought about using the hall at my house but it doesn't fit the genre because the walls are purple and there's nothing really sinister or creepy about it and there's lots of door handles sticking out everywhere which would mess a shot up, on the other hand the lighting is pretty good.
a lot of my shots are close-ups on the serial killer doing things, to do those i needed a room with a lot of light this room has light, but there's a lot of stuff in the way and it would be a pain to move everything around just to get enough light in.
This room is in a similar situation to the first, plenty of light but lots of stuff in the way, and its right next to the kitchen so there is almost always noise in the background i did use the drum kit in the picture to add audio though.
i sat on the kitchen floor while filming most of my serial killer shots because it the right amount of light that i wanted, i filmed while everyone else was out so i didn't have to worry about space or background noise and if i got any of the floor in the shot it would be okay because the wood looks rustic and old like the wood in the first shot of my opening.
i used this room for my detective scene, i covered the curtains because they're purple and i wanted to cut the natural light off and use lamps to light only parts that i wanted, i also cleared the desks off and only had props i wanted on them there.
