Risk assessment

Whilst filming there are a lot of risks that could result in problems, which I will need to take precautions to prevent from happening.

One risk when filming would be the safety of people on the filming se, as there are some very dangerous props that will be used, including a knife, a golf club and some rope. A risk of having a sharp knife on the set would be somebody could easily get seriously injured, by falling on it, or cutting themselves for example. The same risk applies with the golf club, as somebody could accidently stand on the bottom and the club ending up hitting them, or somebody hitting someone with the golf club. The rope could also be a risk, as it could be put round somebodies neck. To prevent these from happening, I will ensure that the knife and golf club are put is safe places where nobody could accidently fall on, or stand on. I will also ensure that all the people that are acting in my film are responsible and won’t stupid with the props that are being used, and won’t throw knifes for example.

Another risk would be that somebody might fall over on the uneven ground or fall over into the trees. This could be a risk as it might be something that could happen at any time, and could very easily happen as the ground is very uneven at the location where I am filming. One possible way that this could be prevented is to ensure that everyone is wearing appropriate footwear. This should ensure that nobody will fall over, and that the risk will be eliminated.
