Location is a big part of our two-minute film opening. Originally, we wanted to have the main protagonist wake up on a roof of a building, but after some thought, we realized that it would not be the best option for that is a difficult location to find.

After the roof idea was shot down, we had the idea of having the character wake up in a beaten down, old building. Guste knew of a place in a city about an hour away from here, Wynwood. Just like the first idea, this idea was shot down due to difficult location. Wynwood is a long drive and if we had to reshoot anything, it would be a process to go back there.


After much searching and a little bit of luck, we found the perfect location. Lucie’s dad works in a warehouse about 20 minutes away from where we live, and he said behind the warehouse, there are train tracks that are never used anymore. We thought the train tracks would be a perfect location to shoot our film opening because it would give the sense of isolation that we wanted, yet also being close to home. So this is the location we decided to use.
