Risk Assessment

Above is our risk assessment. The purpose of a risk assessment is to write down the risks of different negative occurrences that could happen, along with how likely it is to happen and the actions that can be taken to lessen the probability or completely prevent it from happening. Examples of the types of such negative occurrences are shown on the risk assessment, ie. hazards, people who may be harmed, property that may be damaged. The good thing about risk assessments is that they put all these important aspects of making a film into perspective for the producers, director(s), camera men and the rest of the crew, and it remains written out on an organised table so they can have it to hand whenever they need it. It is also important that the crew do not forget the risks involved in making their movie. This is yet another purpose for the risk assessment.
