Location Recce

Locations. On 07.11.19, myself and Esme carried out a preliminary location recce in various towns along the Kent coast: Sheerness-on-sea, Whitstable, and Herne Bay. We wanted to explore these possible locations for set ideas and to also bring up ideas for the script. The locations are flagged with a green pin. Travel and boarding costs Before we chose where we wanted to explore, I researched these towns among others to get an idea of local amenities that we would need for the practical side of a shoot. I also looked at Reculver, Margate, and Broadstairs initially. We left out Reculver as it was a very small town with not much that we could make a point of filming. Margate and Broadstairs were too far from where we are based in Gillingham and train/ travel costs would have racked up. We mainly paid attention to Airbnb's and hotels as this would be key especially for a place for actors to stay but also a base from where the crew could store equipment, cook and supply
