My production design, for the most part, is fairly simple.
The first scene takes place on a moving bus. I have had a good look around each of the buses supplied by Farleigh coaches and have chosen a double-decker bus that has some wide floor space for the characters to walk back and forth and for the camera operator to have more room to manoeuvre and get the appropriate shots. The interior works fine as a working bus; it is not too clean and looks like it is a bus that is in use on a daily basis.
The second location is at the bus depot in the Hoo Marina in Rochester. For sound design purposes, to make the place sound like a working environment, I will have various sounds of hammering coming from the distance as if work is happening to off or being the camera. However, there may be several construction workers to provide ambient noise. The toilet compartment inside the bus depot is clean for the most part and I believe that I do not need to do too much to change the overall look. There is a notable dripping sound that can be used as ambient noise, however, so I shall try to utilise this.
The final location is a bedroom. To keep it simple for filming and location finding purposes, I chose to actually film in a bedroom in my own house. To dress the set, I am planning to make the room a complete mess, as if it has been searched from top to bottom and left in a state by those who have searched it. I will be throwing several items of clothing all over the floor and on the bed while pulling up the covers in the bed to make the room look like it had been ransacked. There isn't too much floor space around the bed so I will have to carefully position on and around the bed to achieve the appropriate shots that I need.
