Location Recce Stills

Recently Brian and I did a fairly comprehensive tour of Glasgow's west end looking for locations for I Love Luci.  Although this hasn't had a direct impact on the writing there were always a couple of locations that have been present in the script right from the beginning.

I remember David quoting Wong Kar-wai as saying that he likes to find a location and then a story.  David followed somewhat similar principals on Hallam Foe.  I have to admit I am not entirely following their lead but I am trying to apply my story to some locations that I have always wanted use, so my approach is not totally dissimilar.

Before being a filmmaker I studied painting, at that time my environs always had a big impact on the work I made.  It seems this is still the case with my current projects.
