Risk Assessment

Location

The primary location for filming will be taking place down Steeplestone Close which is a dead end road.


Hazards
Procedures
Vehicles
Prior to filming we must ensure that the road is completely clear, making sure that there are no pedestrians who could be in danger.
Weather
If it starts to rain profusely we must halt production as the equiptment is being borrowed from the school, thus not wanting to damage electricals.



Location
The secondary location we will be filming at will be the interior of the house.


Hazards
Procedures
Fire
If in an emergency where we need to exit the building in case of a fire, we have assigned evacuation points.

Recce Form

Recce Form

PRODUCTION: The Street

DATE: Wednesday 2nd March 2011

TIMES OF DAY: Anytime between 11:00 - 3:30pm

ADDRESS: 45 Steeplestone Close, London, N18 1JH

SPECIAL ARRANGEMENTS: None

MISCELLANOUS: N/A

OBSERVATIONS: Good space to film, easily accessible

LOCATION: The filming location where our soap opera is based in is Steeplestone Close where there is a narrow road and the houses are conjoined. This road will be the main set in which our soap will be filmed in.

FILMING: We will film the scenes of where the car drives into the road and outside the house.

NECESSITIES: The location had no interruption from drivers and pedestrians. The summer daylight is a key factor, which we had to keep consistent if we had more shooting to do. The reason for choosing this particular road is because it has the main setting and an establishing sense of community which is necessary for soap operas.

Minutes of the Meeting

Date; 7th of February. 
Time; 8:45 am.
People present; Jack, Chris, Gemma, Janki. 


- The script was completed and added to the group blog.
- Chris completed the storyboard
- New group blog needed to be created; the reasons for this being Chris was unable to log into his account and when he could all his posts where scattered. 
- We also decided that Chris would complete the Recce form along with the group production form. 
- I would be completing the shooting script. 
- It also came to light that we still needed to take pictures of the locations along with a location recce.
