For the solitary confinement scene, we filmed inside a racquet ball court at Arlington Park. The only problem with this location was that people liked to graffiti the inside which was painted over with different shades of white. While filming, we had to use only certain parts of the room in order for the background to look more like solitary confinement.
For where the murder takes place, I had to ask a friend of my parent's they would be willing to allow us to film in the mother-in-law suite. The reason why I thought this location would be best was because the house wasn't updated. I felt that an old fashioned house would fit the main character's background better than a rich-looking, updated house.
The police scene occurred at an actual police station. I had to write a formal letter to the Chief asking for approval of getting help from the police officers in the film. Once we got approved, I showed up at the police station to film everything.
The last scene is the main actor running through the woods. This actually happened in my backyard where there is a dense forest behind the pond. Filming at this location was difficult. Some parts of the forest had mud so thick that we had to relocate because everyone kept getting stuck in the mud. When we finally found the right spot, we had to pull some vines out of the way so that no one would get injured while running.
