Location update

We have located the perfect area to film our western, which fits most of the conventions of a western. We were looking for an empty, dry and barren area to film. We will have to get to our location very early as it gets dark very early in Qatar, and we are planning to shoot in the daytime. Also, getting there early means the are will be mostly empty when we get there, allowing us to shoot establishing shots, and long shots.

This locations fits the conventional rocky desert landscape of the Western genre, and also contains man-made structures which makes this area feel less than just a desert, the shade also makes it possible for a contrast in lighting, 

The setting fits the western genre beautifully, though the futuristic sci-fi aspects are not there. We plan to add the futuristic tone through editing, by adding details to the sky such as planets to show that this is not another planet.
