This video production risk assessment document summarizes potential hazards for a student film shoot at a sixth form location. It identifies three main hazards: interactions with the public in the filming area, noise interference, and risks of slipping/tripping over furniture. For each hazard, it evaluates the likelihood and severity of potential harm, then proposes mitigation strategies like cordoning off the filming area, using earphones to block noise, and clearing some furniture from the set.

2. Hazard Evaluation
Hazard: Audience/Public
What could cause harm? Because itisa publicareawhere mostof our sixthformhangout, filming
couldbe an issue.People couldwonderacrossourshootand because ouractors couldbe unaware of
themcomingtowardsthem,theycoulddance or somethingand clashintothe wonderpublic.
What is the likelihoodofthis happening? 5/10
How much harm? Couldbruise the actorand/or the public.
Apply the followingpriorities,howwill this risk be managed (provide detail)?
(1) Eliminate. (2) Reduce or substitute (3) Isolate. (4) Control. (5) Personalprotective equipment
To stop this fromhappening, we couldtryand close of the areainwhichwe are filming bylying our cones andtape around
them or makingsome spare people standingaroundit stopping people from walkinginto the shoot.
Hazard: Noise
What could cause harm? Notso much harm topeople inthislocationbutitcouldaffectthe video.
Because itis publicanditis indoors,the noise level isquitehigh.Sothe noise canputoff our actors
and/orwe will have toeditthe soundout inthe final piece,whichcouldlookabitunprofessional.
What is the likelihoodofthis happening? 9/10
How much harm? Hardlyany, justlackof concentration.
Apply the followingpriorities,howwill this risk be managed (provide detail)?
(1)Eliminate. (2) Reduce or substitute (3) Isolate. (4) Control. (5) Personalprotective equipment
We couldput insmall see-through earphonesto block out the noise whenwe are actuallyfilming.
Hazard: Slipping,Tripping,Falling
What could cause harm? Inthe sixthformareathere are lotsof chairs and tablessothe possibilityof
fallingoveretc.isquite high.
What is the likelihoodofthis happening? 6/10
How much harm? Bruisescouldoccur or evenslightcuts/grazes.
Apply the followingpriorities,howwill this risk be managed (provide detail)?
(1) Eliminate. (2) Reduce or substitute (3) Isolate. (4) Control. (5) Personalprotective equipment
We will have to move some ofthe chairs andtablesawayfrom our set. We will have to leave a fewaroundto make our
shoot lookmore realistic.
