1. Our Risk Assessment
I will be filming my music video on Sunday
21st of October. Before filming I have drawn
up a risk assessment to avoid any potential
hazards during filming.

2. Travel- Car
We will be transporting the equipment by car to avoid any damages as
well as any loss of the equipment. Using a car will avoid any chance of
damage to the equipment and we will not be putting ourselves at risk
from losing anything by having to carry equipment separately.

3. Camera- We will be looking after the equipment by
transporting it all safely in a car to avoid any damage. For
some shots we will be using the dolly to help us hold up
the camera in a sturdy position along with moving the
camera around safely. For shots where we desire for a
handheld affect we may choose to rest the camera on a
hard surface whilst holding it. This will therefore make
the camera more comfortable to hold thus reducing the
risk of us dropping the camera.

4. Lighting- Often with the red head lights, they can reach a high
temperature which makes it dangerous to move the light during filming.
To avoid burning ourselves on the light we will need to ensure that when
moving the light positioning, that the light is switched off. We will also
need to ensure that when touching the light we do not touch anywhere
near the bulb and instead move the light by holding the plastic button
which is away from the bulb. Additionally we will be using filters over
the red heads. When applying the filters to the lights we will need to
make sure that the light is off to avoid burning ourselves. When the
lights are not in use we will ensure and check with each other to turn off
the lights, to avoid them from overheating.

5. Weather- One of our shots requires filming outside
and therefore weather is a key issue. In the rain we will
need to ensure we protect the camera as well as
ourselves. As a team, someone will hold an umbrella
over the camera, and when transporting the camera in
the rain we will ensure that we walk carefully to avoid
slipping over with the camera, which could undoubtedly
result in the damage of the camera or ourselves.

6. Location- Houses
The houses we will be using are close to
each other however the equipment will
still need to be transported in the car to
avoid any damages. By filming in a house
we will be filming in a safe environment
where we know who is surrounding us.
