Learners are conducting location scouting to find suitable indoor or outdoor spaces for a film production. The document analyzes several potential locations - stairwells, corridors, locker areas, toilets, entrance ways, outdoor areas, classrooms and homes - listing hazards and risks for each, such as slippery surfaces, collisions with people or objects, tripping hazards, and other dangers. Floor plans and camera angles are provided to aid planning and ensure a safe production.
