Risk Assessment.

Tripping over wires, trailing on the floor.
Solution- Tape them down to the ground, and beware of there whereabouts. 


The equipment getting wet.
Solution- Eat and drink away from the equipment. If it starts to rain, use an umbrella and rain-cover sheets to keep the equipment protected from water damage.


General car risks
Solution- keep at safe speeds, obey the speed limits, wearing seat belts. Make sure there's no eating and drinking in the car, litter could fall under the brake pedal and create a potential risk. Ensure petrol isn't exposed to a naked flame.


Falling in the river
Solution- keep a safe distance away from the river. Also ensure that the actors can swim.


A bare bulb/ naked flame, causing the curtain to catch fire
Solution- Keep potentially dangerous equipment away from flammable material, such as curtains and furniture.


Falling over and landing on car keys
Solution- ensure there are no potentially dangerous objects on the floor that our actors could fall over.


Dropping props and equipment.
Solution- Ensure the giant framed mirror and equipment is carefully handled.






Equipment List


In order to have a sense of clarity and organise our thoughts Cassie and I have created an equipment list to ensure we have all the desired and needed props, costumes and camera equipment needed to make our filming successful. We collaborated a list of items we feel  we need but if we need anything more then we will adjust the list as necessary.

Equipment:
Video Camera
Tripod
Camera
Car
Car Keys
Macs
Editing Software
Mobile Phone
Escot House
Long Mirror

Costume:
Josie must be in pale pastel colours or white to signify the connotations of innocence and purity. Her makeup will be minimal to show her natural face.
Harriet must dress in dark colours, preferably black or charcoal grey, her makeup will be heavy, and I will experiment with different shades and types of makeup. This will show her "unnatural" which can be seen to have a deeper meaning of her being an unnatural being.

Props:
The props we use must all fit in with the sense of age such as the locations within the house must be rooms that have been relatively untouched.
Ideas for background props are things such as china dolls, rocking horses, and old books. The codes that are signified by these props are a sense of history or "unloved" possessions. This can directly related to the background of Harriet and show she was once a loving child, but is now tormented and haunts this house.
