Blog 12 - Health and Safety

This is a Risk assessment form that we had to fill out each time that we wanted to book the studio or equipment. This form highlights the risks there will be and how we can prevent them, it also is a call sheet of the crew members just in case anyone is needed to be get a hold of if for some reason we were late to the booking or forgot to give back equipment etc.

Before shooting we made sure that everyone in the room knew and were clear about possible hazzards and risks that could happening during filming. This was to make sure that everyone was safe and kept from harm as well as the equipment . Some things we did to prevent damage was;
1. Wires and tripods are a tripping hazard so lighting rigs and cameras have the protenial to be knocked down or broken. we resolved the isssue by taping down any wires that were lose on the floor to stop people tripping.

2.Lights are a hazard for burns as they are very hot. We made sure that everyone was warn that the lights were hot and asked if they would stay away from the lights while we come the lighting effect we wanted.
3. The lighting for our shoot is going to be dark and atmospheric which means that there is going to be a higher risk of breakage and injury as it will be harder to see. To prevent this we told everyone to take care when walking around the room when they were're infront of the camera
