LAX will be the airport that Gemma initially meets Ty and gets abducted at. The reason why we chose LAX as one of the locations is because LAX is a very confusing airport to navigate. LAX is also an international airport that millions pass through every day. Filming at LAX will make the scene of her being abducted more dramatic and chaotic. Gemma will be filmed entering the airport with her mom and dad as if it's just an average day. Then she will be filmed at the coffee shop with Ty and the part where he put a substance in her drink to sedate her.

This house with be the house in the middle of the desert that Ty brings Gemma to. This house is perfect because It is abandoned and dirty and that is the vibe you get when reading the novel so it fits to see it that way in the movie as well. Although the house in the picture is a two story it can still be used as the setting for the house because in the movie it will only be shown as a ranch style home and no filming will be done in the upper level. Also the sand in the image is beige and the film is supposed to take place in the Australian outback so special effects will be used to make the sand appear orange/red.

This is the desert in Arizona where we will be filming. This is supposed to be mimicking the Australian outback. The desert with be modified with special affects once again to make the sand more red/orange. Lighting will be modified to give a look of dryness and harsh sun. The desert home isn't too far from here. But this is where Gemma will be filmed struggling in the Separates. Fencing and other boulders will be added for the scene to match the scenes in the novel.

This picture represents the mine site in the book towards the end. It is the desert mine, also in Arizona only a few hours away from the desert and desert home. This is where Ty takes Gemma after she is bitten. This is a very brief scene especially in the perspective of Gemma. They are literally in and out when they go here.

This is the Center of Rural Health, University of Arizona. This is going to be the hospital that Gemma is brought to. The hospital is relatively close to the other filming locations in Arizona. No its not in Australia but it doesn't matter because really we are only filming in a hallway and the hospital bedroom in which Gemma stays in. This is a very important part because this is the scene where lots of things go down with Ty and Gemma but also Gemma's parents.
