Film Review: Closed For The Season (2010)

 

I recorded this film as I love anything set in abandoned places. Closed For The Season is about a girl, Kristy (Aimee Brooks) who wakes up in a local theme park which she spent time in as a child. She is haunted by past memories as she tries to find her lost teddy and a way out. She is aided by James (Damien Maffei) who's parents were the caretakers. The film is directed by Jay Woelfel.

Today I did a bit of editing. I didn't feel like looking at the ones I took whilst at the Cotswolds so instead I chose to edit this photo from our third trip to the abandoned airfield. I wanted to do something to tie in in to my previous edit of the toilet lid on the floor. I'd love to shoot a horror film or fashion film here!

The Cold Corner:


Song Of The Day: Lana Del Rey - This Is What Makes Us Girls
Reason: "We all look for heaven and we put our love first"

Highlight Of The Day: Feeling happy with an edit!

Inspiration Of The Day: The photographer who captured this beauty of an image. She's a 16 year old called Solara Santoni.

This evening I have been Pinterest-ing and doing a bit of photo editing. We had my Dad over for tea, which was nice, then the boy went to bed early leaving me to my artistic hour! I'm so obsessed with Pinterest at the moment. I'm using it to look for ideas for decorating my new house since I have a blank canvas; the main reason I wanted a brand new build. There's some amazing inspiration for anything you could think of! Lovely! I've also edited some photos from our third trip to the abandoned airfield. It was a nice day so we were able to get some good shots. I think I've come out with my best ever photo too! The lighting was just stunning in the toilets inside the lab building so it's created a shot I'm super happy with.

Horror Movie Bathroom:

Song Of The Day: Lana Del Rey - Riding In Cars With Boys
Reason: I wish I had the life she sings about.

Highlight Of The Day: Editing my masterpiece!

Inspiration Of The Day: Gothic interior photos on pinterest.

Today we took our third trip to the abandoned airfield to take some photos. I'll be editing and uploading them over the coming weeks. I also went for a meal with my Mum and Step Dad at the Choy Hing Chinese Restaurant which was lovely. Now I'm trying to have an early night ready for filming tomorrow!

Hidden Snails:


Song Of The Day: Fall Out Boy - My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark
Reason: Really catchy with a creepy, quirky edge.

Highlight Of The Day: Going to the airfield!

Inspiration Of The Day: Taking my own urbex photos inspired by many, many other urbex photographers' work that I've seen over the years. Far too many to mention!

Photo Every Day #254

This is the chest that we bought from the carboot yesterday. It's a good size, nearly as high as the bed and plenty deep enough for all my camera gear that I intend to keep in it. It's nice and rusty and looks as though it was forgotten about in an abandoned building for years. It's like my very own piece of abandonment right in my house and it's beautiful.

Lock:


Song Of The Day: Nine Inch Nails - Hurt
Reason: If I could listen to songs in an abandoned place, this would be one of the first to be played.

Highlight Of The Day: Playing with my ratties
