Risk assessment and filming schedule- Miss Georgiou

Risk assessments.
Before filming, it is crucial to have a planned risk assessment to avoid any mistakes and highlights the importance of health and safety. I have made a planned assessment of all the negative aspects that could occur and how to avoid them.






The first hhazardto avoid is trailing wires from the different equipment. We can prevent this by using gaffer tape to secure any leads, preventing anybody to trip over then leads leading to injury. Next, we realised that our use of a weapon as iconography can be a hazard. Handling the knife can be a hazard and to prevent this, we uncovered that we should use a fake knife when filming to prevent any hazards. The use of fake blood can also be considered a hazard seeing at it can be knocked over, and spilled on any of the equipment or costumes, accidently. To prevent this from happening and to stop any possible damage, we will make sure that the bottle is closed at all times and is stored away properly. Lastly, we became aware that filming in a church may not go to plan. To prevent anything, we will either be cautious and ask for permission or film outside.

Planning schedules.
Before filming, it is also important to make a planned schedule. This is so that every member of the crew is aware of where they need to be, and so that everything goes to plan. Below is my filming schedule. Some of the shots were filmed before others and didn't fit this plan completely, due to lighting at different times of the day.

To conclude, the use of a risk assessment will prevent any hazards that may harm a member of the crew or that can potentially ruin any equipment. Lastly, the use of a filming schedule will help the production of the sequence run smoothly, as filming will be well organised.
