Filming - TBTR and Avatar

Locations:


Avatar - Hawaii, New Zealand, USA


TBTR - Portland, Pinewood Studios, London, Shepperton Studios, Kent, East Sussex, Surrey


Sets:


Avatar, for the most part, was not filmed in a conventional set - there were hardly any props. Actors had to imagine their surroundings as they were mostly  infront of a green screen, filmig with cameras around their heads to film their expressions.





On the other hand, The Boat that Rocked was filmed on normal sets. For example, it was filmed on a real boat, near Portland. This posed real probelms for the production team, as only a certain number of people coudl be on board at a time, and there was limited space. So, some parts of the film had to be shot on in a studio, with rooms from the boat recreated with more room for a film crew. Locations used also include London streets and bedrooms for listeners. For this, 1st and 2nd units filmed simultaneously.



Good but make explicit connections to the key concepts and draw some useful conclusions. Is ownership relevant for example?
