Hazards/Risks
Waltonroad
This will be the setting of the establishing shots that will set the scene. We
have chosen this street as it is the central road in Walton and acts as the
central point of focusfor the story, We also chose this location as it suites
the urban atmosphere that soap operas need. We will use a trackingshot
to establish the setting.
Potential
Hazards/Risks
The potential of
heavy traffic
could present
risk of being
killed in a traffic
collision.
There might be
pedestrians in
the way of the
tracks that will
be used for the
tracking shot.
solutions
We will solve
this by not
going into the
road and reisk
entering the
path of the
oncomming
vehicles.
We will tell the
public that we
aer filming and
respectfully
ask them to
ovoid crossing
our path.
2. 2
The Grey Dove
This location will be used for the scene in which Dan is meeting with
Johnny to discuss the state of Lucus. Dan is conserned for Lucus’s
well being. There will be use of Shot Reverse Shot to denote the
exchange of ideas and conserns. This is suitable as a small public
coffe shop is recognisable and is suitable to have a dicussion about
such matters. We chose this setting as it give a central social scene to
the town that is crucial to have in the social realism that sop operas
aer based in.
Potential
Hazards/Risks
We will need
permission to
film in a place
of business.
The hot
beverages that
will be in the
scene may
cause burning
if spillt.
Solutions
We will seek
permission to
film in this
establichment
through letter
or the director
of the group
can speek with
the manager to
secure the
rights to film.
We will solve
this by taking
procuations
when
handeling the
hot beverages.
a messybed in a messyroom(Jonny’shouse)
Lucas is amid the aftermath of a dose of drug substance and is sprawled on
the bed. This is suitable because it fits the stereo typical image of a drug
addict’s house due to the lack of control that they seem to have in their
lives. (possible MediumLongShot)
Potential
Hazards/Risks
The house may
be untidy and
so there may
be accidents.
There may not
be enough
room for all
crew
members.
Solution
We will only
use the crew
that we need
for that scene
if there is not
3. 3
enough room.
Kitchenin FoodTechroom
This will be where wefilm the cakecooking scene. This willbe a crucial
scene in the trailer and this is the center of the British Bake off parody
theme of the trailer. In this scene the will be multiple close up shots of the
woman making the ‘Walton Hill’ cake.
Potential
Hazards/risks
There are
knives in the
room and so
people may be

may cause
injury if
touched.
The cooking
equipment
may fall onto
people feet
and cause
injury.
The cooking
mix may cause
damage to
camara if they
come into
contact.
Solutions

downward
with the
4. 4
sharpeneed
blade face
away from
them.
We shall not
use
thappliences
that involve
heat as they do
not need to
befunction
during filming.
Cokking

not be position
too close to the
edge of the
work surface
to reduce
probebillity of
falling.
The camara
man shall
weare the
strap around
their wrist at
all times.
Waltonwoods
This is where we willfilm the flashbackof the murder scene. We chose this
location because I is desolate and connotes the loneliness of the character
as they bury the person. This will also create intrigue in the audience.
Potential
Hazards/Risks
The paths may
be slippery
and so may
caurse injury
There may be
fallen trees in
the way and
broken
branches could
course
splinters.
Animals may
get in the way.
If we stray too
far of the track
we may get
lost.
Solutions
We will wear
suitable foot
where for
traversing
5. 5
woodland
We will aviod
broken trees.
We will try not
to disturb the
wildlife.
Jonnyhouse(livingroom)
We will use this location forthe ‘lying’ scene as it is between twospouses
and therefore it would be effectiveif it were in a home. We chose this, as it
would provide the home affairsfeel that is used in soap operas to illustrate
the idea of domestic tribulations.
Potential
Hazards/Risks
The house may
be untidy and
so there may
be accidents.
There may not
be enough
room for all
crew
members.
There is a
shotgun in the
room.
Solutions
We will only
use the cerw
that we need
for that scene
if there is not
enough room.
We will not go
near or use the
gun.
Alleyway
This will be the setting for the ‘conflict’scene. We chose this as it provides
the dark and tense atmosphere that the conflictwillneed formaximum
drama. The ally way will also provide the low key lighting that will also be
necessary for the dark theme of conflictin the narrative
Potential
Hazards/Risks
There is no
pavement on
one side of the
road.
Pedestrians
may use the
walkwyay.
Cars may
interupt
filming.
Solutions
We will only
use the side
that has a
pavment to
make sure that
no crew
members are
in danger.
6. 6
We will have
members that
are not
filoming to act
asscouts o
warn the
public that we
are oprating
and the fiming
crew of the
pedestrians.
Will will have
the scouts wrn
us of cars.
Merepond
This is where the establishing shots will be filmed. We chose this location,
as it is an iconic location in the town of Walton on the hill. This will provide
really good scenes of the picturesque atmosphere of the town. This will act
as false hope as they find out that the picturesque nature of the townis
spoilt by the turmoil that will be represented in the trailer.
Potential hazards/
risks
Duck poo is
slipery and so
may cause
injury.
The public
may be using
the space and
might not want
to be filmed.
Solutions
We will take
procortions to
make suer that
nobody falls
over.
We wil inform
the public of
our persesnce
and so tey can
either raise
concerns with
or teacher or
take asctions
of their own.
