Today we went in search of a possible location to set our restaurant scene we wanted somewhere that would allow enough space to film but still have the mise en scene of a restaurant. We chose to select the round bench like tables, found outside the dining hall at our school. We decided that we could dress the tables up to look a lot fancier and more convincing, we could do this with table cloths, candles and cutlery.

This shot shows a possible camera angle which encompasses two tables, reinforcing the idea of a restaurant. |
It's always useful to be creative in picking locations where you can have control. You can always suggest that this is the garden of a restaurant or pub by clever editing of the actors appearing outside a real venue. At least you have creative control at a school. site.
