Risk assessment
The risks involved in filming our OTS were:
- Trip hazards given that some shots were filmed running outdoors
- The damaging of filming equipment
- cut hazards on the fence
- damp and muddy grass could cause a slipping hazard
To prevent these hazards we can:
- Ensure that all scripted running/walking paths are cleared of any major objects on the floor
- All equipment must be either worn with a lanyard or fixed securely onto a tripod
- Thorough checks must be made to ensure that no fence links are broken or loose before filming any shots
- Appropriate footwear should always be worn when in any outdoor running sequences such as boots or large but fitting shoes of some description.
