10. Finding Filming Location

On the 21st January we went location scouting around the Ari district (nearby Eye's house). At the start we had planned to film at Eye's old house, however the arrangements of the furniture in the room was not what we had in mind as well as the house being too new looking. Using a room at Eye's house also meant that we weren't able to film the peephole shot. As a result we looked for local hotels and decided to spread out filming and location scouting over two days as this would allow us to explore more location options.

Eye edited a vlog which I filmed during the day with my Gopro:


Here was one of the other hotels we looked at:
Pradipat hotel : 900 Baht/night


Elizabeth Hotel : 1000+ Baht/night


The hotel we filmed at:
Bangkok Condotel : 1000 Baht/night
We stumbled upon this hotel while we were on our way to Elizabeth Hotel. When we arrived by taxi the Elizabeth Hotel exterior looked newer than we had expected, we immediately realised that the interior would be new too meaning a higher price of stay which we didn't want. We decided to look nearby for smaller hotels and we found Bangkok Condotel.
