Toady Cameron and I discussed music and locations for our opening sequence. We both agreed that the music we chose for our opening would have a dramatic impact on the feeling and effectiveness of the sequence and therefore decided to look into the genre of ominous ambient music. We chose ambient music because from our initial story ideas the opening sequence is not likely to be action charged so slower tempo music would be fitting. This presented us with a problem because we both didn’t know of any ambient and ominous music tracks. We decided to do a bit of research and after a couple of minutes found loads of ambient ominous tracks to choose from. The music which we found put us on edge when listening to and had an eerie feel to it so it was perfect. For locations we thought that it would be a good idea to find deserted, dirty and old locations as from my locations mood board we had seen that these locations were the scariest. After a few minutes we realised that there was a perfect location in Pembury at the farm, this would be idea as we both live in Pembury and so filming would not be an issue. It was an old deserted and dirty barn which would be perfect. After asking the farmer for approval to use it for filming we would like to somehow incorporate it into our opening sequences.
Here are some photographs of the barn:

sounds perfect! I suggest you take some reccie photographs of this location and post them on your blog at the first opportunity
fantastic location - in fact you could shoot during the day and still establish that eerie, dark setting associated with horror..
great!
