The majority of our sequence is set in the kitchen of our main character's house. We chose to shoot at Eva's house, which is a reliable and convenient location.
We prepared the kitchen and hall by taping bin bags to the windows and doors to prevent unwanted light (from neighbours or street lights, for example) from ruining the effect of the blackout. To prevent the audience from being distracted by the setting, we cleared away any unncessary objects and kept the table clear. However, as the scene is set in a home, we kept some kitchen objects such as food and pots on display to keep a relaxed, homely and unstaged feel. We aimed to keep the kitchen as realistic as possible.
For continuity, we removed signs such as photos, which would show that more than just the girl and her dad lived in that house, or which would show Eva and her family, who actually live there.
