In order for our filming to go ahead it is vital for us to weigh up the possible safety issues we may face during the productions stage. The list is as follows:
Location 1: The School Hall
Risk 1: Cables
Our group are going to be using wires to connect our lights to the mains, these wires could cause problems when we are moving around. They are in the same area as to that of where we are filming and we may be at risk of tripping over. This would either cause damage to us or the school lighting rig. We as a group of director and cinematographers are at risk of tripping as well as our artists who will be coming on and off of the stage regularly and crossing the wire quite a lot too. This I think is quite a serious risk as while we are filming we may forget about the cables increase the risk of tripping over. In order to combat against this we will plan out the desired paths we will be using most readily; while filming and position the cables so that they are not in these paths.
Risk 2: Raised platforms
A large part of our video is going to be taking part on top of a stage, therefore we feel it best to take the necessary steps to prevent any one falling off of the stage. We will make sure that the stage is clear of any obstruction and that we ave only two people on the stage at any one time.
Risk 3: Electrical Equipment
We will be around many pieces of electrical which could put us at risk of electrical shocks. Both me and my group members and the artists will be at risk however we will be in greater danger.
