This project aims to show you the shooting locations of many of the films on the Hal Roach lot, using a numbered-labelled grid to correspond with the screenshot. The first map is split into twenty-one areas, all of which are accessible by clicking on a numbered button from any page. The second map is "Beyond The Back Lot" and is a further fourteen sections. For reference of which number represents which location, please refer to this main menu page and the diagrams below. It is designed to be a "tour" of the Roach lot, beginning in the top North-East corner and working its way around in a clockwise manner and revealing screenshots from a number of films in a carefully constructed geographical order. The screenshots theoretically run in approximate order according to the grid, so it is as though you are physically walking along the street and seeing the buildings in the correct order. You will note that each screenshot contains numbered markings to identify buildings which correspond with the map. Below, each building on the lot is marked with a corresponding number and a list of all known films shot at each location is listed in detail. Special thanks to Marc Wanamaker/Bison Archives for the use of several images. |
