Risk Assessment

Location/Setting: Inside, outside and around McColl's Convenience Store, Redcar. This location has a number of advantages as it adds some authenticity to our film and looks more professional; rather than being filmed within college.



Risk: Tripping over certain objects inside and outside (e.g. bollards, signs, products within the shop, people etc.)
How to prevent: Mark out the route the actor will be taking before they take it; make sure there are no objects that they could potentially trip over or run into; be careful. 

Risk: Going on to the road when there is an oncoming vehicle, as the location is near a road. 
How to prevent: Again mark out the route and be sure that there are no vehicles approaching when cast and crew are on the road.

Risk: The actor on the bike could crash etc.
How to prevent: Again, mark out the route. Make sure there are no oncoming vehicles or people as the actor or bystanders could get injured if there is an unexpected collision. 

Risk: A misunderstanding in the convenience store.
How to prevent: Let the employees within the store aware of the filming and gain their consent and let customers know so that they don't mistake the armed robbery scene for an actual armed robbery and make a rash decision.

Feedback Video

After presenting our film pitch we recorded ourselves responding to the feedback we received after. We reviewed the feedback; explaining how it would help us possibly improve our film in any way and how it could help us with certain things that we were not entirely sure on.
