Health & Safety


Safety for our own well being and others around us comes first and so we had come up of what we had to take caution to.

Props to be aware of:- Hammer
- Screwdriver
- Stanley blade
- Steel chain

Setting to be aware of:
- Careful not to trip of dustsheets on floor
- Mind walking into existing furniture and objects
- Vigilant whilst moving the tripod legs around in small space

During the actual filming of our thriller we had to be aware and take caution for a small number of safety aspects. One issue was that when the light bulb had been on for a while it had become extremely hot even after 5 minutes of turning it off, so to protect our hands we had used a few layers of newspaper to cover the bulb before changing its direction to light a different part of the room. Though we had not expected the problem with the light bulb we took it in our stride and took appropriate caution to it as we would any other health and safety risk. Another safety aspect we had to be aware of was some of the objects we were using, such as the Stanley blade and screw driver, whilst using these items we had to take extra caution, always having it pointing away from us as it could cause a serious injury or cut if used inappropriately.
