Where the Flashmob will be filmed is incredibly important, the location could make or break the whole project. The locations I thought suitable consisted of:
- Shopping Centers like Harrods, Selfridges, Westfield and Bluewater
I got the idea for shopping centers from the likes of Derren Brown and the E4 Flashmob both done in the Whitgift shopping center in Croydon.
- Train/Tube Stations
Victoria, Waterloo, Angel, Kings cross St Pancras, London Bridge and Charing Cross
I was toying with the idea of using the stations more because of the most popular flash mobs are situated in stations. I also had the idea of possibly doing a some sort of simple dance on the escalators of the tube. I thought 'Angel' was appropriate due to it having the longest Escalator.
After researching different flash mobs I did want to see if I could film even a small part on the tube. Similar to that of Step Up but maybe not as outlandish because of health and safety.
I also thought about filming on the streets of London. Bringing the stage to the streets.
The Street Locations I thought of consisted of:
Piccadilly Circus, Oxford Circus, Trafalgar Square, Leicester Square and Brick Lane
