Why we gave it
that specific
rating
Because all of
the cast and
crew are to be
aware of this
and there are
not to be many
wires around.
This can
become serious
if any injuries
take place they
need to be seen
to and sorted
straight away, if
they are not they
can become
dangerous.
It does not
necessarily
cause risk to
any members,
however all
equipment and
cameras are
expensive. Also
it may harm the
cinematographe
r as it will be
wet.
It may not
necessarily
cause long term
harm, but it may
get tiring and
start aching on
bodies parts
therefore could
cause short term
harm.
