Hi,
I am currently writing a script for an indie filmmaker, and even though the whole movie is in London, I really think it would do the story great service if I could have a small scene in Nigeria somehow, but of course the budget wouldn't allow it. Is it possible to fake Africa somewhere in the UK? The closer to London, the better. Is there someone here familiar with the UK landscape... I think maybe some barren land with patches of green would do... or some patchy plantation, an old house by a swamp somewhere maybe. Suggestions?
The scene only needs to show a man waiting outside a house, hesitating to knock, an old pickup truck drives off from the house, the man hides to avoid being seen. He finally knocks and goes in, then drama plays out inside, and he leaves, having one final dialogue exchange outside the house.
