Location For Noir Filming




Our Location

With our filming location we are aiming to use quite bare and stony buildings. If we use more bright and colourful buildings it wont match traditional noir and will be harder to make black and white without noticeable effects.

Below there are some images of possible areas we could use for the flashback of swapping the drugs: Possible places in the city are places such as Elm Street and Tombstone which have the old style cobble streets. Tombstone has some ideal spots with old lamps and steep cobble streets.
The problem with Elm street is that is has sign posts that wouldn't fit with the decade of noir. So we would have to consider using other locations or changing the angle so it wouldn't be in the shot.




This is another part of Elm Street, the benched could be used for the drug swapping scene. The bench could be used as the swapping place or at any corner, this is also a good spot because there are no modern signs or houses. So the shot would be good for noir setting.

For the opening title scene there is a possibility of being able to use the studio room for the filming of the opening title sequence. This is because of the bare walls and the ability of changing the lighting easily

  1. great work - well done

    add a summary - what did you learn about location hunting - how hard is it to find suitable locations - describe Norwich a little for the moderator - explain the architecture

    to extend make the photos larger so we can see more AND take the images edit them to B&W like your style plan and comment on the suitability in B&W
