Handling props
Who can be harmed Precautions to avoid risk
Director, Editor, Cinematographer, Each person carries a reasonable
Actor amount of equipment so they
dont strain their hands/ then also
rest
Director, Editor, Cinematographer, Make sure all belongings are kept
Actor out of foots reach so it isnt
hazardous whilst the actor is
performing or the
cinematographer is shooting
Editor Make sure the editor takes breaks
in between editing their scenes so
they dont face eyestrains as this
could lead to a long term negative
effect. Also ensure the editor edits
from a reasonable distance from
the screen
Cinematographer Ensuring the cinematographer
takes breaks during filming so
their hands dont get tired and
face strains.
Director, Editor, Cinematographer, Make sure we handle allof our
Actor equipment with care so that they
do not harm us in any way. For
instance, sharp equipment may
cut the skin.
Rating of risk from 1-10
The rating for this risk would be
3/10 as there would be many
bangs and equipment in the
surroundings which could be
identified as hazardous
The rating for this is 4/10 as there
will most likely be many bags and
equipment that are on the floor so
all group members can trip and be
severely injured
This would be rated 5/10 as
excessive editing would be
common for the editor due to
them aiming to complete their
process quickly. However, regular
breaks in between intervals must
be enforced so they dont face any
negative effects
7/10 As the group will be aiming
to film as fast as possible they
may not consider regular breaks.
Ensure they take regular breaks so
they dont experience wrist strains
5/10 harmful props can act as
harmful to the body so we must
ensure all props are handled with
care.
