Risk assessment - Miss Georigou

A risk assessment is a systematic process of evaluating the potential risks that may be involved in a projected activity or undertaking. It is very important recording what potential risks may take place so that we know how to react to them if they do happen, however most of the potential risks are very unlikely therefore we should not have to worry to much about them. Most of our risks take place within our first location as it is in public place, so we will be extra cautious during filming when there. Hopefully having created this risk assessment our music video will be filmed very time efficiently so that we do not waste time fixing problems in which could have been avoided by preventing them. 

Description of hazard
Prevention of hazard
Trailing leads while filming
Use gaffer tape to secure leads, so that we do not trip over to avoid any damage to equipment or injury ourselves.
Dropping the camera during a handheld camera shot
Use strap around your hand so that it does not drop on the floor and damage. 
Tripping over the tri-pod
Place it sensibly when not using it, put it down and away or in the corner.
Getting too cold when filming outside
Wear warm clothes and have breaks inside to keep motivation up, to avoid distraction.
Falling over when running
Make sure the area is clear before running, or walk carefully at all times.
Going into the road with cars
Film sensibly and be aware of any incoming cars, look left and right.
Bath water could spill and we could slip
Mop the floor and keep towels on the floor if any signs of water is on the floor.
Filming in a busy, public area with pedestrians 
Be aware of our surroundings. Moving out the way for people and filming at less busy times of the day.

  1. This post demonstrates some understanding of what a risk assessment is. You have made a start in identifying potential risks and hazards, however, further analysis of how you will prevent the hazards is needed to demonstrate further planning.

    Did you counter any more risks while filming?
