The majority of my opening to the film Chloe was shot on a side street just off of Loughton High Street. I chose to film here as I needed a quiet street but possibly have a few people occasionally walking past to make it seem more realistic for when Jack (Josh) walked past, as well as making it appear normal that Chloe (Megan) would also be walking down a quiet street. Although I would eventually remove the audio from these shots and replace them with a soundtrack and voice over, it still appeared to be easier to shoot in an area that was not filled with people who would look at the camera and ruin the shots out of their own curiosity, (especially in an area where TOWIE is being shot which could cause some unnecessary confusion.)
One area where it was obviously going to be busy was Costa Coffee, as I planned to shoot on a Saturday at lunchtime (1 o'clock) as this is the only time my actors will be available. However, this was only one part of my shots and so it wouldn't be as big of an issue as if I shot a large part of the 2 minute clip in there.
