After considering the place for shooting, we chose this station because of the crowd which could easily bring back anxiety for teenagers. However, we have a very chill day for filming although there were some problems that we got, which prevented us from having a fully success day such as lighting, out of battery and humidity.

Availability
The train starts at 5:30 and to 22:00 every day with 10 minutes per stop
Permission
Passengers can only access the station if they have a ticket. Each group member needs to buy tickets to get into the train station and the train stop. However, the staff in the train station only allowed us to film and record for a short time, so our team needed to go downstairs to film.
Space
The train station is not too massive, but it is usually crowded. This creates both an opportunity for us because our main idea is about chronic anxiety and a challenge because we need to attempt several times for some complicated shots.
We didn't have to pay anything for this project when we could use school's equipments so that tickets was the only thing we had to pay which cost each person 5.000 to 7.000 VND
