Is it suitable – how? Why? (Access, Lighting, Sound )
Additional  Comments / Observations
Stanhope Park- Darlington. A small park directly outside of Queen Elizabeth Sixth Form college. It has a wide flat of grassland that should be suitable for staging the war.

There could be some issues with trees but it is mainly a brightly lit area that should be wide enough to accommodate the two teams of combatants. This is a public park though so there may be some disturbance from local people so I may need to pick a quieter time when people are working. I will need to consider pathways and distances as I aim to take a long distance landscape shot that may interrupt commuters.  The scenery is well suited to the photo I wish to take and the ground could get muddy from rain.
It is very easy access for models in the college yet could prove challenging if I hire models outside of the college.
Since this location is in the UK it is likely to be victim to excessive rain so the field could become waterlogged and marshy. given recent weather and temperature drops there is a slight possibility of the ground freezing over but this seems highly unlikely. 

Photo shoot 2- pre-order
The QE studio- This is a small photo studio set up inside of the QE sixth form college in Darlington. It has a selection of backdrops and light boxes as well as cameras and other equipment necessary for the photoshoots I wish to take.


This photo was originally taken in my personal residence during mock up preparations and although the picture met the expressive criteria the quality was lacking so I will re-take it in the QE studio where I will have the chance to control the lighting. The studio is located inside the college meaning it will be easily accessible to models inside the college and those that live in the local area.my model attends the other college in the area but has Wednesdays and Mondays off so it is an easily accessible location for them too. There are plenty of light boxes available to control the lighting in the photo and build the necessary shadows in the background. Since it is a college though it will be busy and therefore time limits will be strict and timing must be efficient.   

The studio will be perfect for these two smaller shoots as it is quiet and has all the required equipment for the technical side of the shoot. I will provide the props but that again will not be a problem.
There a lot of wires that will need to be managed but again should be easily managed.

Most will be the same as previous article. This location has all the necessary props and being a college has tables that allow me to set up my make-shift robbery. most props will be set up and brought by me so it will be a good location and perfectly suited for the models as they are students at the college.
