    Hey,

    I'm hoping to shoot a short film next weekend and am looking for a location to that in.

    The location I want has to be a large enough, preferably empty space with not much light or at least be able to have the light blocked out....completely.(most of this film is set in the pitch blackness). Also If it has a large, heavy preferably metal door that would be fantastic. These could also be two seperate locations (door and room) if anyone knew of a door or room that might suit that didn't neccesssarily have the other.

    Anyways if anybody has any ideas it would be much appreciated.

    Cheers

    Just cover the camera lense.... you'll see about the same! And use some sound effects cd's.

    A warehouse sounds like the ideal spot. Get on the phone and start ringing industrial estates and the like.

    Seriously though if you're shooting next weekend and you haven't got a location sorted out yet then I would say that you're *not* shooting next weekend.

    Get your location and find out when it's available and then set your dates, not the other way around.

    Also - if most of the film is set in complete darkness you'll need to have a heck of a sound designer to keep people's interest. Otherwise you might just as well be writing a radio play.
