Risk Assessment

There are a few risks we need to take into consideration when we start filming our music video that may cause injury or damage to actors and equipment:

Because we are doing alot of filming at dusk leading into the dark night there are tripping hazards when running around such as tripods and other people. Also as we are filming in a public area we need to take into consideration passers by who may be walking there dogs etc.

Injury can be caused by running around which is vital in our video as it gets our main character from A to B however, running around can caused sprained ankles or broken bones for tripping.

There is also a risk of illness, this is because we are doing our filming at the start of winter so temperatures are dropping so actors are required to wear warm clothing to prevent getting ill and all filming and time spent outdoors will be taken with care for our actors.

There's a matter of concern when using glow sticks as if they are snapped wrong they can split, this can cause pain if the liquid gets into peoples eyes and cuts. The masks can also cause injury becuase they are plastic if the plastic splits it could cut peoples faces or fingers.
