The document outlines health and safety considerations for shooting a music video over multiple locations from November 3rd onwards. It discusses three planned locations - a drama studio set, outdoor urban locations, and patterned walls. The studio set is considered safe as lights and objects are securely fixed. Sharp edges on props will be handled carefully. Outdoor shooting poses risks from vehicles and crowds that require patience and avoiding disruptions. Permission may be needed to film on private properties. The team will ensure all locations are appropriate and do not endanger crew or models.

1. HEALTH & SAFETY DISCLAIMER AND CONTRACT:
The following document will be clarifying and explaining that throughout our
shooting process, starting from the 3rd of November and onwards will have no
risk of danger or exploitation of our models and team members.
Our music video for ‘Stronger’ by Kanye West will have 3 different locations but
they will be manipulated to create an illusion of more places being used in the
video. We will have a set in the drama studio with professional lighting, sound,
props, background and space to shoot the parts that will have our models
portraying the sudden transformation from glamour to exhaustion to symbolise
the aftermath of capitalism and living in a dystopian society. There will be a lot of
themes in between that context like; the stereotypical perception of women by
society, greed, social hierarchy positions, injustice, inequality and much more.
The three locations that we are planning to use for the music video;
i) The set in the drama studio
ii) Outside locations; urban, places with a contrast buildings vs.
deconstructed buildings, prestige and luxurious lifestyle vs. the poor.
iii) Interesting, minimalist, meaningful patterned walls with controversial
props made to compliment postmodernism in our work.
The set:
The set is perfectly safe for out models and team member to work in as
everything is fixed on the walls and poles like the lights. The space is very empty
therefore there are no risks of people hitting, dropping or tripping over objects
in the studio. The lights are securely places on metal poles, which show that they
will not fall or break. The only objects that may hurt our models or members are
the sharp edges of the white blocks that we are going to use as an iconography
and symbolism. But we will overcome that by gently picking the boxes up by
holding them through the handles that are made to hold.
Outside:
Shooting outside could be quite dangerous as we cannot plan or guarantee how
things will work according to the crowded environment and unpredictable
actions of individuals therefore we will have to be really considerate about the
risks and dangers around us when we are shooting. A possible way to solve this
problem would be to always check for cars, trucks and busses. The shoot may
take longer than the scheduled time as we may have to stop recording to let
people walk by, cars, and the crowd in general therefore we will have to be really
patient. We will have to ensure that the procedure of our shooting should not
effect anyone else that is outside of our media project therefore we should
always make sure that our equipment is not bothering anyone that is walking by.

2. Walls/Patterns:
We will as a group ensures that the environment that we are using for mise- en-scene
is appropriate and not risky for us to shoot because we are going to be
using dangerous areas to show the contrast between a luxurious lifestyle against
the ‘hood’ or ‘less fortunate’ areas. We may have to ask for permission to use a
specific area as it may belong to a particular company. For example, whilst we
were shooting our audience interview outside of school, we found a symbol that
said “private area” therefore we might have to ask for permission when using a
private companies properties.
Main highlights for health and safety:
 Double-check the surrounding to ensure that no object is in position to
injure anyone.
 Check the equipment to ensure that they do not fall and break.
 Think of the surrounding and don’t be the cause of any disruptions.
