Risk assessment and difficulties
- 1. Risk Assessment and Difficulties
- 2. Risk we encountered with... Swinging on the swings whilst standingRunning on wallsSliding down stair handles Stealing beers from a shop
- 3. How we over came the risks...when standing on the swings we made sure no one saw us and also to be careful not to fall. To run on the walls and slide down the stair handles at Wembley park was not allowed by the authorities because it was a risk to both others and ourselves. However we had explained it was for a project and so they observe us film the sequences to make sure it was safe.
- 4. Difficulties we faced...Technical difficulties we faced were using the “greenroom” this was a challenge because none of us had used it before but also the shots did not stay within the green areas. The other technical difficulty was using the “steady-cam” this was because we needed practice to balance. The weather conditions did not also go according to plan. It was cold with no sun out most of the times, which created a awful contrast of black and white in some of the shots. Planning, attendance and punctuality was a struggle to were we had to film during our spear time we could not agree on times and days to meet up. When we did meet up the equipment such as the batteries died. we had done 4 different days of filming due to equipment failure, lack of timing and weather conditions.
- 5. How we solved our difficulties...We had a lot of practice runs in both the “greenroom” and using the “steady-cam” before the actual filmingWith the clips that were shot with no sun light we had adjusted them in the editing; created better brightness and contrast by using “colour correction 3-way” and “brightness and contrast” on final cut-pro With the time management we had decided to meet at mornings so we had time to spear for those who were running late but also to get more filming done.
