This is a prime location as they have good facilities and there is a lot of security around the building.

1.Address & map of location

Birmingham Ormiston Academy is a prime location to shoot the photos for the magazine as they are a specialist arts college therefore they have fantastic facilities including a green screen and TV recording room. This is ideal because using a green screen it will be easier to process and edit the images so that they are ready to be included in the product.

Why it’s a suitable location for the scene?

order to use the facilities of the green room I will have to book a time and day where I will take the photos this will mean that I have to contact the college and arrange a time and date.

The power sources which are at the location include a full set of TV lights, plug sockets for usage of TV cameras and microphones and also speakers which are included within the room. This allows me to be able to use a plug socket if needed for the camera.

Lighting issues at the location?By hiring out the TV studio (including green screen) I will have full usage of the lighting therefore I can create darker or lighter images or neutral if I feel that that would be the best to use for my magazine. Whilst using the space I will be supervised by a qualified technician so that if anything were to go wrong I would not be held responsible, I will also be able to ask the technician to change the lighting and colours throughout the shoot.
