Risk Assessment

There are a variety of risks with the area we have chosen to film in.

The first risk is the branches. There are hundreds of sharp branches over the ground and sticking up from the ground. We have to make sure everyone is careful when they are around this area as if someone falls, they could really injure themselves. The risk if getting hurt is around 6/10 as anyone could trip over and if they do, someone could break there arm or wrist or they could just fall and cut themselves. There are different injuries for this hazard.

Another risk is that our actors or actresses could trip over. There are plenty of things that they could trip over due to the filming location being abandoned. They could trip over metal, weeds, branches or stones as these things are all over the abandoned building area. We have to make sure precautions are taken when filming starts and we have to make sure that everyone pays attention to what they are doing to make sure they don't trip over anything that is lying around. The risk is around 5-6/10 as it could lead to serious injuries if it did happen.

The area we have chosen to film in is an abandoned metal framed building. It has no roof on so it is all outdoors. There are hundreds of high and low metal bars situated everywhere so another risk for or actors/actresses is one of them banging their head. We have to make sure everyone pays attention as to where they walk or when they enter the building as they will have to climb in-between two metal bars. As a group, we will have to take charge and make sure everyone is aware of what is around them. The risk is around 3/10 for this as it could hurt if someone bumps there head. I haven't put the risk any higher as unless someone is running on the premises and runs directly into the bars, it would only be a small bump.

These are about all the risks we face with our location as it is set outdoors, in a field, in an abandoned roofless building. As a team, we will have to make sure everyone is aware of any risks around so they know that they will have to be careful around the area and watch around them in case they bum into anything or trip over anything.

There aren't any risks that are incredibly dangerous.

As a team we will be watching everything that is happening and we will watch the actors and actresses we have to make sure they are safe throughout the filming procedure.
