This document is a risk assessment form for a thriller coursework production. It rates potential hazards on scales of severity and likelihood to determine a risk factor. Hazards identified include camera cables, working at heights, and heat/cold. For each hazard, the form notes who may be exposed, proposed actions to take, and those responsible. Completing the risk assessment helps plan for safety and mitigate risks for the cast, crew, and public.
