Original Possible Locations

These images are from popular coffee house The Bridge Cafe, located near our college. We wanted to use this as our location for the cabaret-esque performance at the end of our video. This decision was made due to the "art deco" decorations around the room, although we said it felt like a '17th Century French coffeehouse. However we liked the atmosphere and how the room would look in monochrome with a red filter. Unfortunately we are unable to use this location as for an hour of filming the manager wants to charge us £100 for "loss of business". In spite of this we feel using this space would really capture the essence of the performance we want to create.

 These four bottom images were taken in the function room of The Red Lion pub, also by our college. Although it has some of the tables for the feel and an acceptable layout, it doesn't have the same decoration as The Bridge Cafe. Despite this we think this would be a better place to film as the lighting is better and there is more space for the camera tripod to be set up, as well as the characters moving around. The manager is willing to let us film for free although in this run to Christmas filming time is limited with the room being rented for Christmas parties. This space is slightly less thematic but is more convienient and with the layout of the tables, we feel that the ability to create a club scene with people playing poker is more easily attained.
