Advert2 location

These are shots of some potential locations for our sponsorship idea which we took around the school. We chose school a) because it's practical and b) because meetings, like book clubs and AA meetings, are often held in schools. The school setting adds to the realism of the AA meeting that will be being held in our advert. I think the second location looks most realistic; it looks more like a separate room unlike the first one which, with all it's doors and windows, is obviously a corridor of sort. The third location's furniture is way to bright and we are concerned that it will detract attention form the focus of the advert. The carpet and dark walls of the last location don't fit with our criteria!
We hoped to take some shots of the community hall at Cheney school, as this is the kind of place AA meetings would genuinely happen, but it was being used today. We are now waiting for an email which will let us know what date we use it. 
Here are 4 different locations in our school which we could possibly use to film the second advert.
We have chosen to film in school because it is very practical for us and also the fact that meetings (AA meetings etc) take place in community buildings such as schools. The locations we have chosen will add to the realism of the advert and the way that we will lay out the chairs (in a circle) and the mise en scene we use will also add to the realism.

We think that the second location looks the most realistic, this is because it looks like a separate room, unlike the first one where you can see doors and windows from all angles.
The third location is much too bright for our liking, whereas the fourth is much too dark due to the dark blue paint and carpet. If we decided to use the third location, we are afraid that this will take all the attention away from what is going on in the advert and distraction is also a concern of ours if we used the fourth location.

There is one more location that we are waiting to look at which is Cheney Community Hall, this is the kind of place where an AA meeting would be held therefore we want to see what it looks like and leave this as a potential place for filming. We went there the day that we took all these location shots but unfortunately it was being used so we couldn't go in, but we are not waiting for an email to confirm the day that we can go and see it.
