Risk Assessment

When filming our music video we need to be careful of events which may occur that will disrupt filming.
There will be many hazards around the room; wires and leads from the lighting and cameras, the rubber tracks from the dolly and the huge amounts of electrical connections which will be around the room.

Each of us will be delegated a job so ensure that no one is too busy to be careless on set and we will aim to keep the whole areas tidy and organised to prevent any mishaps.
These are health and safety risks, however there are also risks involving the expensive, high quality equipment we will be using. As for physical safety, we will ensure that everyone has an equal amount of work to do and that the process is a team effort to ensure that no one is stressed and rushing around and hopefully this will mean that we are careful with the equipment.
Furthermore, we need to be very careful that we include all the shots we've planned so this will also require communication and organisation from all members of the team. Otherwise, we could muck up the video and find that we are missing essential shots and as we're taking each set down after we've filmed all the shots in it, if we miss any, we cannot go back and create them. Continuity is also a risk that we must consider and, as I have a sharp eye, I will keep an eye out for continuity errors whilst filming.
The creation of a shooting schedule, list of shots and use of our storyboard should ensure that we avoid this problem.
