Location Recce Form

We are planning to film in Epping forest which it is easier for everyone to get to because it is

a camping scene to get to Epping forest you will have to drive up to the forest but you will

have to get the bus or train upto loughton station and then walk 30 mins.

I like how it's not a crowded area so that we can film a forest is a good place to film a horror

film because it is isolated and gives off a scary atmosphere and also filming in a forest is

good because are film is based on camping.

The problem that we could run into is there could be drug dealers in the forest because they

know that no one would come into the forest.

The only way to overcome the problem is by avoiding them in the forest.
