Scene Likelihood Potential Risk
Scene 7
Highly unlikely The car could hit something when The strip of road that we will be
filming this scene, as the actor will
have to be driving the car. The actor
could edge into another moving
vehicle that could be on the road. The
driver could not have a full clear view
of the road if the cameras are within
the car.
Scene 2 Highly unlikely The actor could cut himself on the
razor blade which could cause
bleeding from the skin.
Scene 2 Unlikely The actor could fall over as a tripping
hazard on the clothes on the floor, the
clothes could make the person slip
and fall, which could injure the person.
Scene 3 Unlikely The actor could lean towards sharp
garden tools that are around the shed
and could cut himself.
Scene 3 Highly Unlikely It can be quite difficult to breathe in
the shed with the petrol canisters
inside of the shed as they have been
stored in the shed for a long time, it
can be difficult to breathe in and is not
healthy.
Scene 3 Unlikely The actor could fall off the bike when
filming as he would need to ride the
bike within the film. He could fall over,
slip and hurt himself.
Scene 3 Unlikely There is a scene where the protagonist
actor has to almost cycle into a
pedestrian actor on purpose. The bike
actor could forget to break and cycle
colliding into the pedestrian, making
both actors hurt.
Scene Unlikely The cameraman could collide with the
3,8 and cyclist potentially breaking camera
9 gear and the cameraman.
Precaution Taken
filming on the scene we will make
sure before we are filming that there
are no cars driving down the road
that can cause an accident. As well
as this the actor will have full visibility
when driving as no camera gear will
be obstructing the driver. Make sure
to position in a way not to obstruct
the driver.
There will be plasters for backup if
this happens and I will make sure to
tell the actors to be cautions when
shaving. There will be a first aid kit
nearby as well.
There will be a person to assist the
person as well as a first aid kit on
scene. Also make sure to show and
tell the actor where the potential
hazards are so they can step over the
objects that could make cause them
to slip.
I would have a first aid kit on set as
well as the garden tools will be
placed in an area that will be on the
other side of the shed making the
chances less likely to happen. The
garden tools will be packed away
secularly which will not make the
equipment fall.
Make sure to open the door of the
shed before filming a few hours ealier
to allow fresh air within the shed and
remove the petrol canisters from the
shed to remove the smell of petrol
coming in from the shed.
To prevent this from happening make
sure to identify areas where it could
be more difficult to bike down, such
as narrow lanes or busy incoming
traffic from pedestrians and cars.
I would have to calculate within the
distance speed and time where the
actor would have to break the bike in
order to narrowly miss the actor
pedestrian within the short film.
Make sure to direct in which order
the bike and camera is going to be
set into so the two people can know
in which positions they would have to
be in.

Scene Likelihood Potential Risk
Scene 4 Unlikely The cameraman could get hit by a
tennis ball when filming if the
cameraman gets too close to the
equipment.
Scene 5 Unlikely The actor could bang his head on the
attic ceiling because of how small the
ceiling is from the ground. The size of
the attic is around 3 foot tall at some
places.
Scene 5 Unlikely The attic will be fairly dark and the
lighting levels can be quite low making
it difficult to see around and film. The
hazard could be for the cameraman
and actor bumping into the walls or
objects around the attic.
Scene 5 Unlikely The temperature of the attic can get
very hot with the main central heating
being centred around the attic.
Scene 6 Unlikely The football can hit one of the actors
or cameraman. When filming if the
cameraman gets too close to the
equipment.
Precaution Taken
Make sure I keep a suitable space
back when filming this scene and
plan which camera angles and
distance between the actors will be
to the cameraman.
There will be a first aid kit on scene in
case of accident and the actor and
cameraman will be aware of the
height and make sure to not look up
as much as possible.
There will be a few lights around the
scene set around for actors to have a
better visibility on what the
surroundings will be like of.
Make sure for the actors to stay
hydrated and drink water to cool
down if it gets hit in the attic.
Make sure I keep a suitable space
back when filming this scene and
plan which camera angles and
distance between the actors will be
to the cameraman.
