Location Scout

Location 1: Sunderland College, Student Photography Studio

Due to this studio being available for myself as a student in my own college, it would be ideal to use this studio due to it's easy access and good facilities. However, there may be some trouble finding a way for the model to come into the campus. Furthermore, the facilities aren't as good as some of the other potential locations and the times are slightly inconvenient with the studio being closed on weekends, so I would have to work the shoot around both mine and my model's timetables.









Location 2: University of Sunderland, St Peter's Campus, David Puttnam Media Centre

This studio belongs to the University of Sunderland who my college have links to. The studio is available to book and has some of the best facilities. It is also a perfect distance allowing me and my model to both be able to travel by foot, bus or metro. However, it can be quite difficult to find if you are not exactly sure on where you are going, which may be a problem for my model (and we do not want to miss our slot).


Location 3: BANANAStudio, Newcastle-upon-Tyne

BANANAStudio in Newcastle-upon-Tyne advertises itself as a studio that can be easily booked for amateur photographers or hobbyists. This therefore, may be ideal for my photoshoot due to me photographing my model with only some experience. However, again it may be difficult to find due to it's postcode signifying that it is not exactly in the centre of Newcastle, meaning that buses and metro's may be considerably difficult to navigate in order to get there and transport may be quite costly, which will be inconvenient for both myself and especially my model.







Overall, I believe that my College photography studio does not have the facilities to the standard I would like, and the BANANAStudio may be very difficult to navigate. Therefore, I will make the efforts to book the studio in the University of Sunderland.
