It is important to consider risks before filming as it will allow my group and I to take the correct precautions to avoid the following hazards listed below;
Why is risk assessment important?
Risk assessment is important to prevent hazards and dangerous things from happening. Our group decided to film at night when its dark so it is important to use risk assessment to make our group aware and organised, such as bringing out flash lights and torches so we can see where we are going. This is essential as otherwise something bad could happen.
How has it assisted you with filming?
Me and my group took all of the safety pro cautions listed above which made our filming successful as there was nothing getting in the way of it. For example if we didn't have torches, over half of our sequence would be filmed in the pitch black and so would not be able to see anything. Wherever the camera went, the torch went swell which was a big help as it didn't seem too dark on camera. One of the days that my group filmed it rained, but luckily due to the risk assessment we remembered to bring an umbrella, which we held over the camera to protect it from damaging, if we hadn't brought one we would of had to stop filming which would of been another delay that isn't needed.
You have made a start in considering the purpose of a risk assessment and how it can demonstrate group planning. However, the table that you have included is a little vague and this is because you have not fully explored the hazards and ways in which you will prevent this from happening.
