This risk assessment identifies risks that may occur during the production of a promotional video. It will involve filming at different college locations over multiple days, with hazards including tripping over wires near the road. Editing the raw footage also poses risks like eye strain from long periods at a computer. Controls like taping wires to the floor and taking regular breaks will reduce risks to a medium level for editing and high level for filming.
