Using an actual knife

Characters can get stabbed by other characters in the violence scenes.

All the characters in that scene. This would be the person who plays the villain and the victim.

Characters must not run with the knife in the hands in the scenes that they are not being filmed.

I could also replace the sharp metal knife with a shiny plastic knife which would not cause any harm if it pokes the characters or someone false while running with it.

1

Wet floor People can slip and hurt themselves

Everyone is at risk. The person who is recording and the characters.

I need to make sure all the settings have a dry floor

I also need to watch the weather forecast to make sure it is not raining on that day because some of my scenes will be filmed outside.

2

Shots from high up or near the edge of something

People can fall of the edge and if the camera is heavy people might drop it from high up.

The person who is recording which is me. Also the characters because if I’m taking a high up shot from a higher stairs then the camera could drop on the characters head and cause them to have injuries.

I need to make sure that I can hold the weight of the camera and if I can’t I need to get someone to hold it for me in that shot.

Time pressure

Rushing to finish in time is when hazards get missed, or people start taking risks.

Everyone Remind everyone that it is just a film and there is no need to rush. I can start recording my film at least a month before the deadline so I have enough time to film so there is no need to rush and do filming in the last minute.
