-The Hamptons
The Hamptons is an estate near to us which has a large field in the middle and very picturesque stereotypical houses surrounding. We decided this would be a good location for Geoff to first meet the neighbour as it looks just like a movie set for a stereotypical housing estate. We liked this so we decided to use it for one of the first scenes in the trailer where the neighbour's dog urinates on Geoff's nice shoes. The only problem we encountered was that the flat landscape meant the top of the hill in the park where we intended to film was incredibly windy so we had to work around the audio issues.
-My Summerhouse
We needed a casual looking room where we could stage the house party where Geoff meets River, the character he develops a crush on, so we looked for a practical solution. We needed somewhere that looked like a part of someone's house but had the right setting to have Geoff meet River. We also would be filming in the evenings and maybe at night so we needed somewhere safe and easy to get to and from, this made someone's house the perfect choice and we chose mine as it was easy to get to and my summerhouse fit the description well as the sofa in the picture would be great to film them sitting next to each other and talking.
-Geoff's bedroom
For Geoff's bedroom we actually used the bedroom of the actor playing Geoff. We went to have a look at his room to see what we would need to change or add if we were going to film there and realised that it was almost already perfect for the role of Geoff. The actor playing Geoff had Star Wars posters and models which perfectly fit the nerdy stereotype we were aiming for and despite having to move some furniture around and add the Overdoze lucid dreaming book and lightsaber, the room was already very close to how we wanted it, saving us time.
