Location Assessment | |
Purpose of the shoot: | An interview with a teacher to promote the school's curriculum. |
Media Language: | Clean, presentable classroom and teachers. Students in the background quietly working (wearing uniform). Panning shots to show the facilities, static medium close up for the interview. Natural lighting. |
Pros of Location: | Easy access, we can control a lot of the shoot (MeS). Realistic, real students. |
Cons of Location | Poor audio and natural lighting. Limited space. Difficult to control external sound. Parts of the room are not well maintained. |
Alternative location: | School lobby: the lighting is better, but access is not as easy. Gym: More space, acoustics are not as good. |
RISK ASSESSMENT | |
Potential Hazards | - Poor equipment (Projector screws are loose) - Bags on the floor, trip hazard - Earthquake - Smashed windows from PE class outside |
Evaluate Risks | - The projector wobbles a lot when the door is opened and closed, it could fall and injure a student. - In regular class there have been instances of students tripping on bags. - Earthquakes are common in Bali, things like clocks may fall off the wall and strike students. - A football hitting the window could smash it and cause glass to enter the room. |
Control Measures and Timeframe implementation | - Fix the projector, tighten screws, call handyman (15th Jan) - Warn students before hand about the bags, appoint a bag checker to regularly monitor the situation (Day of shoot) - Retrain students on the earthquake drill (Earthquake Guidelines) (20th Jan) |
Self Reflection: Performing this risk assessment gave me a better awareness of the potential hazards surrounding my location. The preventative measures I have taken will save a lot of time, because if any of these accidents occur I will have to delay my shoot. Furthermore, after assessing my classroom location, I decided that the lobby would be a better option. This analysis of the location helped me make the decision.
