Pre Production: Health and Safety Risks Of Our Film

During filming we're aware that we could face a few health and safety risks. So we precautions in order to be safe. 

1. Tripod - tripping hazard. We are aware of having the tripod out at most times and so this may get in our way at times and cause a tripping hazard and could break break the camera. We will therefore exercise caution when walking around the tripod. 
2. Wires - tripping hazard. We are also aware that there will be wires lying from the lighting and so we will be careful when walking around the wires to not cause an accident. 
3. Damage of equipment. Another thing that we must be aware of is damaging either the camera or tripod, as it is the schools equipment and if we break it, we will have to pay for it. Therefore we will be extremely careful using it and will be sure to have at least one person in control of them at a time. 
4. Dangerous props. In our scene we use a lot of dangerous props, such as knifes, in order to show that one character is the antagonist and to help aid the story line. Despite this, we are fully aware that using this equipment in filming is quite risky. So we will always make sure that we handle these in the correct and sensible way.
5. Weather conditions. Finally, a risk is the weather. For example, if it is wet or icy conditions, one of us could fall onto the ground. Also it could either rain or snow, possibly causing damage to the equipment. So we will make sure that we check the forecast based on days to film.
