Filming - Risk Assessment

With what we plan to film today i.e. Smashing items, we needed to make sure we was somewhere where it would be safe for us to do it, without causing any harm to us and anyone else. Firstly, we decided to do it in an open park, although this is a public area, we would be able to find a safe place to do it where it wont cause harm to us or any member of the public. Doing it in a room in school would be more dangerous as it is more enclosed, therefore increasing the risk of us being harmed. Measures were taken in order for this to be safe for both us and the public.

We made sure firstly that we was at a safe distance before any smashing of items commenced, this was so no broken objects would be able to harm us. Once an item had been smashed, we would pick up all the pieces carefully and put them in a black bin bag. This is so we are not leaving dangerous pieces of glass or other parts in the park where it could harm a member of the public.

Where fire was involved, we done it near the river so we would easily be able to put out the fire if it got out of hand, luckily this did not happen and of course once the fire was out and cooled down, the wooden plank was removed and put in a bin, we didn't want to leave any rubbish.
After all the filming was done, we did a sweep of the area, making sure all pieces were picked up and put in the bin bag. Once that was done, the bag was placed in the bin.

 I think this was very successful, as well as gaining all the shots we needed, neither us nor any member of the public were harmed, we managed to be very efficient with this and made sure this was all safe, including picking up all broken pieces on the floor so no trace of us were left on the site.
