Risk Assessment

                                                     RISK ASSESSMENT

What was the risk ?	How did we respond to the risk?	What action was needed?
Tripping  hazard over tripod	Make people aware of the positioning of the tripod.	Make sure someone stands by it at all times.
Getting run over by a car	Make sure we are all strongly aware of each other and other people commuting into and away from our location in their cars.	To look around , and warn each other of cyclists and other vehicles.
Filming at night	Make sure we kept warm and had torches and kloe’s car headlights on.	To be aware all the time of other people and ourselves.
Physical harm In a lot of our scenes Nia gets pushed around and laid on the concrete floor , and in a ‘’fight’’	We ensured that in the fight everyone kept at a distance when pretending to punch her. When she’s pushed against a door we stuffed clothing under her coat so she wouldn’t get hurt. When she’s laid on the concrete the cast ensured they would lie her down gently.	Stuffing clothing to ensure comfort and shouting freeze! When Nia wants us to stop.
Dropping the camera	The camera could  break and postpone us from filming and also destroy school property So we had to be careful.	Ensuring that the camera’s protection cap was on and holding the camera up right and not swinging it.
Reversing car into a river	Here is a dangerous hazard of drowning and getting stuck We had 2 people behind the car signalling to kloe how far she could go.	2 people to near the car to ensure kloe how far back she could go.  We did this by using communication skills.
Clothing	-Laces -scarf’s  Making sure none of the clothing restricted speech and tripping over or choking … even for the filming crew.	Made sure that laces were done up  and scarf’s didn’t restrict speech/dialogue .
Rubbish	-          Tin cans -          Cigarettes Rubbish can harm local residents nearby so we must tidy up after ourselves leaving the place as it was.	Ensuring that we carried a plastic bag with us to collect all the props in a particular scene that we used.
