Risk Assesment

This is the risk assesment as of the first group meeting however, changes are likely to happen if the locations change.Any changes will be posted onto the blog.

Location: living room
Fire Starting: There is a door and a window in the living room and so I will make everyone aware of the keys to the door, so that they are aware of where the fire exit is in case of a fire.

Injuries whilst moving furniture: Because the furniture may be heavy we will all move the required furniture together. Not only this but wee will also go through the correct way of lifting up objects; in a way that will not damage the back or create accidents.

Tripping over camera equipment: In order to avoid this hazard I am going to make sure that the whole group is aware of where the camera equipment is, so that the possibility of accidents taking place is minimal. However, if there is an incident then a first aid kit will be with us on location.

Location: Kitchen
Slipping: Slipping may occur due to water being left on the kitchen floor. In order to avoid this hazard I will ensure that the floor is dried, before any filming takes place.

Location: Front garden or outside of someone’s house (in front of a house door)
People passing near equipment: could accidentally slip or break something.
To avoid this I am going to ensure that the area is not very busy whilst filming, and so the chance of this happening will be reduced.

Cars: Might get hit by cars.We need to ensure that passing cars are not a hazard and so we will ensure that the area we film in has a low driving speed and is not very busy.

Bad weather: Equipment may be damaged and the atmosphere that we want will not be established.In case of bad weather my group will go and film under a shelter so that the equipment does not get damaged. However because bad weather will sabotage the happy atmosphere we want to create, and so another filming day will have to be scheduled for this scene.
