Scrolling through Media: The Set/Location

Hey there Cambridge!

I finalized the set to be a warehouse. Earlier, I wrote that he is a janitor at a furniture franchise (back in the "Portfolio Project Idea Reveal!!!" post). The set will be the storage room of that furniture franchise.

Set for janitor cleaning:

So far, the most challenging part of my project was trying to find a location to film the janitor's cleaning scene. It was really difficult since I had to find a place to film someone cleaning... so, a bathroom? Where will I get a bathroom or any other public space to clean? I tried to check out a park bathroom, but it was honestly a pretty nice bathroom... too nice for the scene.

But right before I went to that park, it clicked to me. Why don't I make my garage the furniture storage room warehouse. There are so many advantages to this: the storage will make sense as to why there is a leftover magazine, it is easily accessible to me, and if I put random furniture in it, it will make the perfect furniture store storage room! So instead of cleaning a bathroom, he is cleaning a storage unit in his workplace.

The image below presents the garage space. If I move around the mess and bring in some furniture (like chairs and other big items) it can look like the storage room to the furniture franchise. The dimmed light in the garage will really set the scene to be lonely and quiet.

Set when at janitor's home:

Here are pictures of the janitor's home, my dad's house. It works as the perfect set! It is already messy, like someone actually lives there, and the interior design looks like it would belong to Brit Jones and his roommate with the mismatched furniture.
