Planning: Risk Assesment

The hazard that may occur	Who is at risk?	/10 Likeliness	How to prevent this from happening
Lights getting too hot when filming	The person under the lighting	5/10	Make sure that the lighting gets turned off when it’s not being used Make sure people aren’t under the lighting if they don’t need to be
Trip over the equipment	People around the equipment	7/10	The way to prevent this is to keep the equipment out the way of other people To keep the equipment tidy, when it is being used
Raining, which may electrocute someone	People using the equipment	1/10	Keep the equipment inside when it’s raining Film on a different day
Raining, which may cause someone to slip over on mud	People who are walking around	7/10	Don’t make people run near mud, and make sure that the floor isn’t wet when filming
Falling into a bush	Anyone	7/20	Make sure that there is nothing in the way of the person, so that they can’t fall over Ensure that everything is out of the way

By making a risk assessment, it ensures that I am aware of the worst possible outcomes if something was to go wrong when filming. When I am filming, I don’t think that it is going to be very likely that these are going to happen, however they need to be considered as there is still a small possibility. Adding on to this I also need to consider the risks as I will be using public areas to film, as the outside location of a tree maybe a common place that people are going to be. The risks need to be considered as I don’t want to get anyone else’s way or hurt any of the cast that I am going to be using in my music video.
