Risk assessment

As a pair my partner and I had to carry out a risk assessment. The purpose of making a risk assessment table is to alert us of all the potential risks which can occur during filming. By making one ensured my partner and I were aware of all the dangers we faced from our chosen locations.

Hazard and risk	Action
Location 1 - Bedroom	As we are filming in a bedroom there is a risk of tripping over objects such as wires, filming equipment and loose objects. To prevent this risk from happening we will insure everyone is aware of were the wires are located in the bedroom. Also we will make sure the room is tidy before we film as it will keep us more organised and prevent any further hazards from happening.
Location 2 - Marlow train station	Out of the risk assessment table the train station is our biggest concern. To make sure we are all safe during filming we keep a safe distance from the platform as train approaches and leaves the station.
Location 3 - Marlow river	Like the train station platform we will also make sure we keep a safe distance from the river when using the filming equipment. At one point during production our actress Summer is planned to release paper boats into the river, as she will be filmed doing this she'll need to keep a steady balance to ensure she doesn't fall into the river
The public	Before filming we will inform as many members of the public as to why we are filming. However, if they wish to not be filmed we will patiently wait till they have passed.
Filming equipment	Filming equipment will need to be monitored at all time as it is school property. As we are filming during autumn/winter weather conditions the weather will be unpredictable meaning we will have to come prepared with umbrellas.
