Risk Assessment

Actors

With our film there will be a extremely low risk with anything wrong happening to the actors. Even though it will be filmed on a rooftop there is a concrete ledge that will prevent anyone potentially falling off. We will make sure there is no risk at all by speaking to the actors about the dangers of being too close to the ledge and will try film some distance from it. Also as we are planning to film over the Christmas holidays, it'll be icy on the floor so we will test the grip on the floor before shooting to prevent any falls. if it is too icy we either wont film at all as it wont be safe, or take some steps to increase grip. Apart from the there is no risk for the actors being hurt during the filming process.

Equipment

As it is during the winter season there is also a chance of it raining and the water may damage the equipment that we have. To prevent this we will check the weather and if needs be change the shooting schedule so we can film on a better day. If it starts raining during filming we will bring umbrellas and other waterproof materials so the camera doesn't get water damaged. The equipment that we will use will be operated by someone who knows how to work the camera so there is no risk of the camera breaking because it falls off the tripod. We will also be using a knife in our film so when we are not on set we will have it wrapped up in a bag just so the police don't get called or something like that. Taking steps like this prevents anything wrong happening so the filming process will go a lot smoother and nothing wrong will happen.
