Performance Re-shoot

After uploading all of our footage we realised that the lighting for the performance in the Cellar Bar was poor and has made our footage look grainy. The problem we had was that the Cellar Bar is underground and there is no natural light in the room. We struggled to get the right lighting all day and this shows in the quality of our footage.

All this means that we will have to re-shoot the performance for the music promo. We are going to do this in the school drama studio as we will have more control over the lighting and this means the footage will be noticeably better quality than the shots from the Cellar Bar. The re-shoot will take place over two evenings instead of the half day we had at the Cellar Bar. This should mean that we get all the shots we feel we need and give us time to get the lighting right.

Mock Digipak

Risk Assesment- Health & Safety

Location-Courtney's house-Bourne

Risk
Risk level 1-5
What is the risk
How to reduce the risk
Picture frames
3
The picture frames could fall off the walls.
We will take the pictures off the walls so the risk of them falling off is reduced to 0.
Sharp corners on the fireplace
3
If someone trips and falls onto this they could get seriously injured.
To lower the risk of this we will make all cast and crew members aware of this risk.
Wires on the floor
4
This is a tripping hazard if any loose wires are on the floor.
We will move all wires out of the way and if any wires are attached to the camera we will make the cast and crew aware of them and move them out the way as much as possible.
The TV
1
The TV could fall if the stand is knocked.
To reduce this risk we will keep the filming away from the TV as much as possible.
The camera equipment
3
If cast or crew members aren’t looking where they’re going they could trip over the tripod or any other equipment we have on the day.
To lower this risk no members of cast or crew (who are not using the camera) will go near the equipment unnecessarily.


Location- The Celler Bar-Stamford


Risk
 
Risk level 1-5
What is the risk
How to reduce the risk
Tables and chairs
2
There are multiple tables and chairs around the bar; these could easily be tripped on by the actors and crew.
Make sure all chairs and tables are out of the main walkway.
Pictures on the wall
2
There are a few pictures on the wall, these could easily fall off if they and knocked and cause injury to anyone hit as well as a tripping hazard.
Either make sure you are clear of the pictures or take them down and put them in a safe place.
Mirror
4
There is a large mirror hanging on the wall. This is a major hazard as it could fall off and hurt someone as well as shatter and scatter glass on the floor. It would also create a tripping hazard as well as glass shattering 
Move the mirror to a safe position and be especially careful during transport.
Wires
4
Near the stage area, there are wires on the floor as well as on the walls, these are tripping hazards and are relatively hard to see so are an extreme hazard.
You can reduce the risk by making sure that everyone knows where each wire is, and if possible, move them out of the way.
Glass on the bar itself and bottles.
3
As it is a bar, there are many items that are made of glass, these can be sharp and shatter when dropped. We must make sure no to touch them or drop them on the floor.
Keep away from the area filled with glass as much as possible.
Electrical equipment and lighting
3
There is a lot of high powered lights and stage equipment and instruments such as key boards and amps. If these are plugged in an moved, they could start a fire if the circuit is damaged.
Make sure you only move the item when it is not plugged in and no liquid is near it.
Tripods and cameras
3
The tripods and cameras could cause a tripping hazard if they are not seen or are in an unsafe area.
Make sure everyone knows where the cameras and equipment are and keep clear of them when not in use.
