Pro-Tip: Quite a bit of stock imagery is devoid of life with regard to the environments where people live and work. The idea of stripping away the character of a location only reaffirms the clichés of minimally styled sets that appear unlived in. By subtracting too many things from your set to create a minimal environment, you remove a major character from your story: the location.
Location Diversity: Urban, suburban, and rural
Casting Considerations: Age, gender, and race diversity. Authenticity and diversity will play an important role in the success of your shoot. “Real” body types recommended.
