Risk Assessment

There are many risks involved whilst creating our opening sequence ‘The
Disappearance of Nancy Adams’. One of these risks is bad lighting, we were using
inside of the studio as well as outside. We had a little trouble with the lights
inside the studio because it was too dark we couldn’t see the actor’s faces
(expressions) when they walked in the room. We tried using small lights from
phones to help but it wasn’t as good as we needed it so this resulted in us having
to film our sequence all over again with better lighting.

The next risk involved in filming was our actors not turning up, we needed to
find people who we could rely on because if they cancelled right at the last
minute we wouldn’t be able to film with lack of characters. This was another
problem we faced, all of our actors were unavailable at the time we needed to
film however, luckily we were able to find replacements for them and get our
film completed in time for our deadline.

Another risk involved is the weather; we had quite a lot of bad weather when we
had planned to film. The first time we wanted to film we couldn’t because it was
snowing the night before and it was quite windy too. When we filmed the last
time, it was extremely cold and a little bit windy making it quite difficult to keep
the tripod still. I think our opening sequence could have been improved a lot if it
wasn’t so cold because all of our actors found it hard to keep up with the acting
and running about with the wind.

The third risk involved in the making of our opening sequence was when one of
our actors had to run onto the road. This is quite a big risk because if we were
filming and she ran out onto the road, a car could’ve driven round the corner too
fast and we might not see it in time.
