A couple of days ago I was involved in a shoot in the abandoned wing of the Invercargill hospital. The area is huge, and has been abandoned for the last three years since the new hospital was built. The cool thing about the location is how it has just been left, and is almost totally furnished with old desks and hospital beds etc. It looks really run-down too, with trash everywhere and empty medicine bottles. The area includes many offices, hospital rooms and even an operating theatre.
The place basically looks like something out of Silent Hill. I'm trying to write a short script based around the location, just a three minute one, and try to make it as spooky as possible. Will try and have the location secured for shooting this coming Friday if I can book out all the gear. Sure wish I had a camera to take some pictures with...

That's really cool. One of the locations I've wanted to shoot in. (Others I'll include someday) Throw in some blood soaked patients, some bloody instruments, and some, I don't know, blood on the floor. In fact, see if you can get a discount on fake blood if you buy it in bulk. You can make it yourself but I prefer the bought stuff.
Maybe you can help me a bit with the story, I've got a rough idea already and have written some of the script but need a second opinion and some ideas.
Send it through. Should be interesting.
