Pictures of the filming location


This is a photo of a gun emplacement. This could be a good place to film some of the battle.


This photo is of a small campfire with pots and pans around the edge of it. I like the layout of the camp fire because it reminds me of a WW2 style film set.

This is a photo of a pig-sty that has been converted into a camouflaged weapons store room.


 This picture was taken inside a wooden hut. Displayed are the weapons that i am planning on using for the opening two minutes. They are authentic WW2 German weapons and i am planning on scattering them on the ground to add to the destruction of the battlefield. Since the weapons are real, it will give the opening an authentic feel and add to the realism of the film.

This is another picture of the inside of the barn. This is just a seating area for the actors.


This picture is of a dummy dressed in a WW2 German Paratrooper uniform. I am going to use the dummy in the opening because it will  will add to the destruction and chaos of the battle. The white pickup truck will not be there for the actually filming.


This is a picture of fallen trees. These will be good to use because it looks as if a battle has just happened and gives the film a more authentic look and feel.
This is another picture of the fallen trees plus a trench running through the middle of it. This is where i am planning to film most of the opening. There is also a U.S. Army tent in the background


This is a photo of a fallen tree. I am going to use this in my film because it looks as if there has been an artillery bombardment and the tree has been hit. This will also add to the authenticity of the opening.
This is another picture of a blown up tree. In the background there are some logs and another tent.

This picture shows a larger view of the field that i am going to use. There are a lot of fallen/blown up trees and a number of foxholes scattered over the place.

This is a close up of some of the logs. A foxhole can be also seen in the centre of the screen.


I am planning to use this part of the field to shoot the opening seconds of the film because there are a large number of fallen trees and foxholes. I am also going to scatter weapons and pieces of American and German equipment over the ground. Along with the fallen trees and foxholes, it will add to the chaos of the battle and show how horrific it must have been.

This is the last picture that i took. It shows more foxholes and trees. I think this will be the perfect location to film the opening two minutes because everything i need is already there.
