Risk Assessment

Risk Assessment:
A risk assessment is used to identify and reduce risks while filming a media product, for ours we had a wide range of risks because we were using electrical technology as well as filming off site and using food in the video so we had to consider how all of these elements can be a hazard.


By making this risk assessment it reduces the chances of coming into contact with any risks and shows how we will deal with the potential risks.




Hazard:
Location of risk:
Risk severity:
