Directions: Pre-Production- Risk Assessments

I recently visited both of my chosen locations and noted down possible risks so I could fill out my risk assessments. These assessments have to look at all the hazards a cast and crew could face, all the way from minor ones to major ones.

LOCATION 1: Jayar Car Parts. SCENE(S): Scene 2

Whilst on location I noticed a few possible risks-

• Roads and cars
• Pedestrians and staff of location
• Overgrown areas
• Weather
• Trip hazards: cables, curbs, steps
• Uneven ground
• Spiky fences
• Potholes

I have assessed all of these risks, and more, and created this risk assessment-

LOCATION 2: Ursuline Drive. SCENE(S): Scene 1

Whilst on location I noticed a few potential risks-

• Uneven ground
• A nearby generator site
• Pedestrians (residents, school children, dog walkers...)
• Roads and cars
• Tripping hazards (curbs, cables, steps...)
• Weather
• Overgrown weeds

I have assessed all of these risks, and more, and created this risk assessment-

After assessing both locations, I have decided that they are safe and so I will be going ahead with my shoot on Monday 8th February 2016.

Overall I think my risk assessments were very thorough and I think I had thought of everything that could possibly happen.
