Risk Assessment

Risks and control


Tripping over tripod legs - Always have someone looking after the tripod, watching for danger. Collapse the tripod when it is not in use.
Tripping over cables - Make sure the cables are secure and not in the way
Obstructing fire doors - Be told the location of fire doors, supervising teacher should check groups regularly
Collision between people - Be aware of others moving around you and the camera equipment
Opening doors - Check that no one is stood behind the door before opening it
Walking into extra tables and chairs - Make sure that all extra tables are pushed out of the way and all chairs are either tucked in or stacked out of the way.

Continuity Editing

Continuity editing is invisible cuts. The 180 degree rule and match on action is used to make the scene flow smoothly. Match on action is where editors line up the shots so that the action doesn't change and fits together. The 180 degree rule is where the camera can only move around and film in the 180 degree angle on one side of the line of interaction.
