Firstly, do not film on your own. If
you follow this control measure,
this means someone can be
watching over you to.
Practice using the cameras, so
correct procedures ca take place.
Go out to film with someone else,
to prevent one person from carrying
all of the equipment.
Again, do not film on your own –
film with someone else or in a
group. Make your teacher aware of
where you will be filming, or they
will be able to know this from your
booking sheet. Also, leave a contact
number with your teacher.
