The Shooting Begins

I have begun shooting my movie, and have realised, as it goes along that some things may need to be changed, in order to make it possible, and also to improve. I have introduced a stop motion at the introduction of the video, before the music even starts, it is a drawing of the first scene, where they create a match on action to eachother. I have already created the opening scene, with my protagonist standing in the field. Rather than an hour it took 10 minutes, as we had to pay attention to the risks as shown in the risk assessment, and it was a very cold day. I have begun editing the video I have already collected.

24. Risk Assessment

Throughout my previous posts I have included certain elements that could prove to be hazardous during filming. Here is a full risk assessment for my music video.

The Road: When shooting the lemonade stand at the side of the road we will have to be in complete darkness with no headlights for a split second. I will need to make sure I am on a quiet road, where there are no cars or pedestrians that this will affect.

Risk Level: Moderate

Equally I will have to make sure my main character is placed on the road in a safe place, such as on the pavement so that if a vehicle does come he is not in danger.

Risk Level: Moderate

The Elements: As we have now entered November, winter is clearly on its way, this morning was the first frost, meaning the temperature has dropped. I must beware of icy ground in all of my shots as this could lead to somebody slipping and falling.

Risk Level: Moderate

I will need to take precaution whilst taking my first shot of my character stood in a field, sped up, that he does not get too cold, as this can lead to hypothermia, especially if he is stood still.

Risk Level: Low

1. I will monitor this closely

2. I will have myself and another monitoring
