Production Design

Erik's apartment is perfect. Everything has its place, is clean and methodical, nothing is out of place or missing. The house is very monochromatic with earthy accents. It looks straight out of the Ikea catalogue.
This is where Erik and Noah meet again. It is a your typical neighbourhood pub, nothing fancy but has its own charm and personality. Everyone here knows each other and the atmosphere is friendly and inviting. Warm practical lights fill the frame while soft cool light accents the space.
This is where the film ends. Like Noah, the space is classy but in it's own way, a little retro, a little chic, a little eclectic, a little messy, a little like home. It feels inviting and friendly, very soft and gentle.
This is where the movie opens and we first meet Erik and Noah. This is upstairs of a high school house party, most likely the younger sisters bedroom that's off limits. It's busy, messy, covered in collages and sprinkled with fairy lights. Warm and cozy feeling, but lighting to make it slightly uncomfortable.
Colourful and fun.
Some space to shoot a long alone wide shot. 
Consideration for a space that can act as a stage for a open mic/guitar player.
