1. RiskAssessment for shooting at Epping Forest
Potential Hazard: Precautions: Emergency Procedures:
Weather can be a potential
damage to equipment and
props being used.
The weather of the day we’re
shooting will continuously be
checked; if rain is scheduled then
another day for shooting will
have to be arranged. Rain or
Snow can damaged expensive
equipment and the crew can
potentially get hurt if they were
too fall etc.
If any college equipment gets
damaged, then the college will
immediately be informed. If any of
the crew is seriously injured, then
the emergency services will be
called or driven up to the hospital,
which is close to the location.
As we will be using cars to
shoot some of the music
video, there could be
potential danger with
other cars.
Ensure that filming is done when
the roads tend to be clear, so that
could possible be earlier in the
morning. No music will be
playing inside the car to ensure
that the driver/actress is paying
full action to the roads and the
actions that she needs to do for
the filming. Any actors not
involved in the car scene will stay
clear from the roads.
If any accidently happen between
the cars and the crew get injured,
then I will contact both the college
and emergency services for instant
help.
Getting lost at the location.
The overall location is
very large meaning the
crew may wonder off and
lose the little section as to
where we will be filming
I will ensure that all the crew
stick together and do not wonder
off. If for any reason the group
needs to separate, makes sure
that mobile phones are taken
with them and that everyone has
each others phone numbers.
If someone gets lost or separated
from the rest of the group, then no
one else will depart and find them.
The group will remain together and
the missing member will be
contacted through their phones. If
they do not respond then everyone
must return to the meeting point.
Filming will of course be stopped
until the person is found – this may
even mean contacting emergency
services if they do not return.
Getting harmed from the
public walking their dogs
through the forest. Some
people tend to let their
dogs off of their lead and
they can potential wonder
over to the filming spot.
Epping forest is a large
area and a prime location
for dog walking and so the
crew must be warned to
be careful.
If an animal such as a dog is
loose, then the animal must be
ignored, no one should be trying
to interact with the animal. We
will obviously have to prevent
filming anything until the animal
is away from the area in which
we are located. The member of
public who is in ownership of the
loose animal will politely be
asked to keep the animal with
them rather than disturbing our
shooting.
If in a rare case that one of the crew
does get attacked or harassed by a
dog then the entire group will have
to walk away. None of the other
crewmembers are to get involved in
case they are also attacked as well. If
the person is seriously injured then
a short trip to the local hospital will
be done.
