Location Scouting

 Alexandra Park - Singapore 

This was done the week before filming, when, due to Covid-19 complications, I wasn't here to join Olivia in location scouting. However, Olivia was able to go and take photos of the location, which we would share over Teams calls and decide on where to film.

This area was nice as it felt very remote and peaceful, as if it was part of the countryside. This was important for our film, as we wanted the location to directly contrast the mood of the scene, with dark elements such as the murder and violence being overshadowed by the aesthetically pleasing setting. 

We had looked at a few other places to shoot the film but didn't feel as if they worked for our ideal setting we had in mind - either because they contained too many city elements (such as buildings or fences) or because they didn't catch the sunset like this one did at the right time. We also wanted out characters to be looking out onto a view at the end of the opening, and this place captured this perfectly.
