I have been asked by the rest of the group with finding possible sets for our production in the local area, preferably not too far away because of transport issues, in which case i have found only two possible places so far which truly fit the bill in the way we imagine it, one of which is directly in Ipswich itself, the Christchurch Mansion, which is a large Elizabethan house turned museum with outer grounds that are just perfect as it is within reach for all members of the team and has the right feel to the area, the other location is a little further out in terms of distance, it is located in the town of Colchester, in a park, the Castle park area itself, by what i've seen it is on the same quality of Christchurch but my only concern is that it is not a guarantee that we can keep the general public from ruining our filming process, i hope that the general public will just see the cameras and chose to move around us when filming.
It is actually more difficult to locate a period accurate Elizabethan house in these modern times, even in a town still soaked with elizabethan design, and even so i am still dubious about ones i do find because we may find that it the locations found there may be little tell-tale signs of modern day technology not intended to be involved at the moment of film, such as security camers or lamposts, but i don't really think it would be a problem if these changes are found as they will be so insignificant anyway...i don't really know what will happen with it...i guess i'm just nit-picking...
