Control Measure

\\

No-one will be alone, so directions

and navigation of location. Will be
fully aware of surroundings to
prevent people falling and hurting
themselves.

\\

Area will be checked before use no

animals are in shooting space. Team
will be aware of risk, informed to
wear clothes to fully cover skin to
lessen the chance of these risks.

\\

As its a public open area could be

smashed glass around on the floor,
to prevent this the area will be
checked its okay for production and
safe.

Actors/team

Noise could
\\
shock or
further cause
panic attack.

Actor/team/any
locals

Smoking
causing fire.

\\

Balloons could pop creating a loud

bang, the team will know of the
balloons and where they are located
(will be in sight) so dont get too
worried.
One of the actors smokes, therefore
if butt thrown on floor could easily
cause fire in a forest. Will be made
sure it is out and disposed of
properly.
