Risk Assessment

Activity	What is the risk?	What can you do to prevent the risk?	Risk Factor
Crossing Roads.	Filming up London we will have to cross many busy roads. There is a risk of me or one of my group members getting hit by a car.	To prevent this, my group and I will make sure we always use a crossing (if one is available). We will also make sure we are aware of our surroundings at all times.	High
Traveling to and from our destination.	We will have to get trains and tubes to reach our several destinations. There could be a risk of one of us falling on the tracks.	To prevent this we will make sure we are calm and don’t rush anywhere.	High
Traveling in rush hour.	We expect to be finished filming around 5-6pm. As this is rush hour the trains and streets will be very busy. There could be a potential risk of my group and I getting split up in the crowd.	To prevent this we will all make sure we save our phone battery throughout the day so if one of us does get lost we can contact each other.	Medium
Handling glass.	Another location we will be filming at is my house. When filming here we will be handling glass. There could be a risk of someone dropping the glass and further resulting in someone cutting themselves.	To prevent this we will make sure we don’t mess around when handling the glass.	Low
Painting.	We plan to use paint to smudge over our artist’s body. This could potentially get into someone’s eye or on someone’s clothes.	We will be very careful when applying this and also wash our hands after wards to prevent this.	Low
Tripping over wires.	When filming inside we will have wires around because of lighting that we will be using, therefore someone could trip.	Before we begin to film we will make sure we all know where hazard wires may be and also try to make the walk space we are using as clear as possible.	Low
Weather.	Our artist will have to stand in a range of clothing outside and inside. If she is wearing an outfit that reveals her arms and legs she could become cold as we are in winter. Also the other members of the group could become cold whilst filming too.	To prevent this we will all make sure we wrap up warm and have a coat on standby   for everyone who will be filmed.	Medium
Falling off Skateboard.	We are filming using a skateboard, however our actress has never used one and isn’t steady on it. We need to be careful that when using the board she doesn't fall off and injure herself.	To prevent this we will make sure she takes her time with what she is trying to do and practices beforehand.	Medium
Round about in park.	Playing on the round-about in the park we need to be careful one of us doesn't fall off or get our foot stuck under it when trying to spin.	Although in the shot the actors are supposed to be messing around, when filming we will be very conscious of what we are doing.	Low
