Whose
responsibility?

Tripping over
wires

Ensure wires
are moved out
of the way to
ensure all
members of
both the cast
and filming
crew is aware.

When catering
for members

Ensure care is
taken whilst
catering.

Caterer

Risk of fluids
getting into the
camera

Ensure there
are no forms of
liquid near the
camera, if drink
breaks are
needed. Turn
off the camera,
put it away or
ensure no one
is near the
camera.

Carrying heavy
equipment

Ensure people
take turns
whilst carrying
equipment.

Director

Why we gave it
that specific
rating
All of the cast
and crew are to
be aware of this
and to make
sure all wires
are tucked
under and
hidden to avoid
damage to crew
or cast
members.
This can
become serious
if any injuries
take place they
need to be seen
to and sorted
straight away, if
they are not they
can become
dangerous.
It does not
necessarily
cause risk to
any members,
however all
equipment and
cameras are
expensive. Also
it may harm the
cinematographe
r as it will be
wet.
It may not
necessarily
cause long term
harm, but it may
get tiring and
start aching on
bodies parts

Risk of any
fluids being on
the floor whilst
filming

Ensure there
are no drinks
around or any
water sources
whilst filming.

Water Damage
to the camera
due to rain or a
leakage

Keep all fluids

in a separate
bag from the
camera at all
times. Also,
check the
weather
forecast to see
if its going to
rain and dont
film any
outdoor scenes
on days when
rain is due.

All cast and crew

members

Risk of filming
on roads

Ensure that
there are no
cars nearby
when filming
and when they
are ensuring all
characters are
off the road or
anywhere near
the road.

All cast and crew

members

therefore could
cause short term
harm.
It may cause
serious harm if
somebody was
to slip this would
affect the filming
and production if
any cast and
crew member
was to get
harmed.
It doesnt
present any
potential risks
on any
individuals
within our group
or actors.
Camera
equipment is
expensive so we
intend on
following these
precautions in
order to avoid
damaging the
camera.
One of the cast
or crew
members may
get seriously
injured if they
are near a
vehicle which
could be moving
at a very high
speed putting all
members at high
risk.
