When using equipment there are many hazards that could occur, for example when using equipment such as tripods I must ensure that all of the area around the tripod is clear so that I don't trip and injure myself or any others whilst focusing on the actors performing in the live performance. Training with how to use the equipment is essential because with in-experience can come a potential hazard or danger to either myself or other people and I cannot afford to do this especially as I will be shooting in a small environment.
because the band agreed to let me shoot their practise, I offered to help transport the equipment to the practise room however the equipment and props needed in order to shoot this video are also very heavy therefore when loading certain aspect into the car for transportation it would be essential to have 2 or more people carrying each piece of heavy equipment to ensure that no one strains muscles or hurts themselves in the process because not only would this jeopardise the shoot but it would also result in someone being hurt when an accident could of been prevented easily.
Finally, there are some scenes where I will be filming outside of college and using paint therefore it will be messy and there will no doubt be fumes from this that are harmful to us, therefore when shooting I will ensure that it takes place primarily outside because that way the fumes can go off into the atmosphere and there will be plenty of fresh air for the actors and myself to breathe so no harmful chemicals will be inhaled.
