Finding the perfect gas station: Location Scouting

 As I gear up to film my portfolio project it's a good time to scout possible filming locations. As the brunt of my film opening takes place inside a gas station store that is what I focused on looking for. I began with simply searching up gas stations near me.




Then I thoroughly looked through pictures and reviews of each. I had a very specific vision in mind which significantly narrowed my options. My first option for filming is a food market connected to a gas station called Toms Thumb. I liked this place as it is more of a grocery store than a traditional gas station convenience store, which works better for my film opening idea. Additionally, this gas station is located in a more secluded area, matching more which my story.


However, in the case that they don't let us film I have also made a list of three other potential options. 
  • Chevron – 17990 W State Road 84, Weston, FL 33326 | Phone: (954) 389-0780
  • Shell – 276 Indian Trace, Weston, FL 33326 | Phone: (954) 384-8994
  • Mobil – 1108 Weston Rd, Weston, FL 33326 | Phone: (954) 384-0107
