Location Planning

Before shooting, I need to plan out the locations I am going to use within for my keyframes.

By looking at the script, locations needed are:
  1. Interior, house: 
    • Minimalistic bedroom, large - but left empty as it's inhabited by one person. All decor within the room is of one colour, white. Contents of the room are kept tidy and in a designated place in Scene 1 and become messy for Scene 5 as Jake's sanity deteriorates.
    • From the same house, a dining room. The room is equipped with antiquated looking furniture and looks very desolate and untouched.
  2. Exterior, public roads: 
    • Bus stop that Jake uses to get to his work, a particularly busy road in front of it, to cause the motion blur time lapse effect.
    • Exterior: One of the roads Jake has to cross to get to work. This will play as the scene of the accident, particularly rural.
  3. Interior, hospital:
    • Hospital corridor - conventional hospital corridor near reception desk only needed for one shot. Near the characters is a patient's room with the door closed.
    • Inside of the patient's room - a hospital patients room with a bed, next to a window. Conventional hospital room.
The locations numbered 1 and 2 should be easier to obtain than location 3 is. Location 3 will be troublesome to obtain as very little hospitals will allow photography in them and I don't want to take a room away from a patient that needs it. I will need to replicate a hospital through set-dressing and image manipulation. The shot of the reception will only really be needed for the establishing shot to shot that the scene takes place in a hospital, other than  that, a show reverse shot outside a wall of similar colour to those of a hospital should be convincing enough.
