When planning my event, location was key. Finding a spot to host the exhibition allows it to be seen by the intended audience in order to gain feedback on the project, as well as theme the footage to the end location.
The first location I considered was the usher gallery/collection. This setting would suit the Victorian aesthetic of my content and its themes. However, use the location would cost a large fee that I do not have. If this event was to be hosted again in the future, a location that fits with the context, and can allow for the exhibition to stay open for a number of days will be used. However, as it stands at the moment, I do not possess the funds to commit to such a location, so an alternative will have to be used.
The location I am using for the exhibition is an empty shop unit in the St. Marks shopping area. Although this location does not have the aesthetic of the theme, set dressing will be used to make it fit the theme. The location has the practical equipment needed in order for the event to be properly hosted. The venue has enough space to for fill all the needs of the exhibition, having enough space for all the projections and equipment, whilst keeping them at the necessary size to make them effective; whilst having the space to host the guests themselves.
