Possible Issue Actions to be Undertaken

Weather Checking the Weather Forecast to see the
best time to film, if it does happen to rain, I
do have access to an umbrella and can
probably get some covers for my
equipment.
People/Members of the public Ensure I avoid/stay away from other
members of the public that could potentially
disrupt/interfere filming, I will also be filming
during college time meaning people would
be at school, which ensures it wouldn’t be
during peak hours.
