Description of shoot/production:
This is a generic risk assessment covering general filming activities anticipated during the course
of this production. It deals with the everyday hazards associated with filming in public places. It
should be used as a reference when carrying out all and any filming activities on the production.
As and when specific or significant other risks are identified in connection with a particular
planned activity individual assessments will be necessary to supplement this generic
assessment. It is the responsibility of the Location Director and Producer to issue details of
planned activities far enough in advance of shooting to allow for assessment of whether any
specific or significant risks exist. In the event that last minute changes to the schedule or list of
activities takes place (for example when you are already on location) it is the responsibility of the
Location Director to report any planned changes to the office (Production Co-ordinator or
Production Manager) before they take place. In the event that the Location Director is not on
location the Associate Producer or Co-ordinator should inform the office in the same way.
