Our production would consist of several locations however as we're film from in between the series we decided to focus on two the first location which in fact is the main location for this sequence is the White heart Roundabout this location is ideal for our production as this will allows us to achieve the composition/layout we set out to achieve as the centre of the roundabout has a 5 way split it would be perfect for the opening of out production we will also be using other area in this general area for a very short amount of time for a chase scene











The Second scene will be set in a house (mine) and this location will be introduced near the end of the sequence.
