This document provides a template for conducting a risk assessment for film production activities. It includes a chart to assess risk level based on likelihood and consequences of hazards. The template lists potential hazards during different scenes, who or what may be harmed, existing controls, risk level, and any further actions needed. Examples of hazards addressed include working alone, equipment malfunctions, data loss, stress, problems with work environment like fire, and unexpected game problems.

1. FMP RISK ASSESSMENT
This document is intended as a basic template to assist in the completion of a risk assessment for film production activities.
Detailed information is available from a variety of risk management and risk assessment specialists. Useful information can also be obtained
from the Health & Safety Executive www.hse.gov.uk
When conducting a risk assessment, consider all the likely hazards; who may be harmed, property which may be damaged, and the controls
already in place. Then, for each likely hazard, bearing in mind the controls already in place, record the ‘risk assessment’ level. The further
action(s) to be considered will be determined by the level of risk assessment.
