When looking for a location for 'The Babysitter' we wanted something homely but also had a sense of tension and was visually interesting to look at. John had lined a few places up to look at, one being his home and a friends student accommodation. It was important to me, that the location didn't look like a students. I wanted it to have that grown up feel, so you could imagine a 40 year old man living there.
We tired Johns locations, they were fine, but one was a little on the small side and the other just seemed too plain for our family home. I decided to take John to my house to see how he felt about that. Once we arrived John seemed fairly set on this location to begin with. He was a big fan of the open space and I did think that it would offer us a lot of opportunity with camera angles and movement within such an open plan home.
I've also decided that my room could double up as the children room with a little rearranging and prop decoration. I feel this will be an ideal location for 'The Babysitter' and think it will be easier to arrange such a complex shoot from the comfort of my own home.
