What it can cause

How to prevent

Dropping the camera

Camera man/Actor

Can land on one of the
crewmembers and cause them
harm or it could break.

Attach it properly to
the tripod

Slipping over

Whoever fell over/whoever knocked
them over

It can cause serious injury to the
person who fell over and could
break equipment

Falling into the river
when running across
the rocks

Whoever fell into the river

Can cause whoever fell in series
harm because of the height and
the rocks. In worst case scenario
the person could get soaked by
the water and could get
hypothermia

Make sure not to
knock anybody over,
don’t go onto wet
mud and wear shoes
with decent grip
Wait a few days to
film that the rocks
are dry or wear shoes
that have good grip
on them so that you
are less likely to slip

Equipment failure

The person who is in charge of making
sure that the equipment is working
properly

If the equipment fails then it will
make it so that we will not be
able to record our film

Cast/crew becoming
ill whilst filming

This will can only fall onto the person
has become ill

If some of the crew become ill
then they will not be able to
participate

Check the equipment
frequently and check
it before we use it and
after we use it to
make sure they are
working properly
There is not really
any way to prevent it
but you can make
sure that they are
wearing warm cloths
