Potential risk: The camera man must fit into the back of the boot so that the car back shutting shot can be achieved.
Consequence of outcome: The cameraman or the camera itself could be damage by the boot being slammed down on them.
How to avoid the risk: Ensure that the cameraman is fully secure by doing slower test shuts and speed up the final footage to achieve the same result.
What to do in case of the risk: Ensure that the cameraman is okay and if he is not, seek immediate medical attention and apply ice to the slam wound.
Potential risk: The actor Callum could slip when he enters the kitchen as drinks bottles have been discarded in his path.
Consequence of outcome: Callum could be injured and be unable to shoot the rest of the SYNTH project.
Only put empty bottles down and not actual liquids.
What to do in case of the risk: Ensure Callum’s safety and provide him with water and paracetamol, more severe injuries may prompt a first aid kit.
Potential risk: Callum might trip on the stairs when the profile shoot is filmed.
Consequence of outcome: Callum could be injured and be unable to shoot the rest of the SYNTH project.
How to avoid the risk: Ensure Callum has footwear with traction as well as rehearsals so that he can practice the pace.
What to do in case of the risk: Ensure Callum’s safety and provide him with water and paracetamol, more severe injuries may prompt a first aid kit.
Potential risk: Frank might be injured when he kicks for the door, spraining himself or damaging the property.
Consequence of outcome: We could have to pay to fix the door and we might be unable to shoot the rest of the SYNTH project with the killer out of commission.
How to avoid the risk: Have a few practice swings and since the show is in profile, have Frank stop just before he touches the door to cut away.
What to do in case of the risk: Ensure damage to the property isn’t substantial and provide Frank with time to recover as well as pain killers if the sprain is bad.
Potential risk: Callum might be injured when the door swings and crushes him.
Consequence of outcome: Callum could be injured and be unable to shoot the rest of the SYNTH project.
How to avoid the risk: Practice the swing and cut the camera away before it is fully shot in order to hide the soft impact.
What to do in case of the risk: Ensure Callum’s safety and provide him with water and paracetamol, more severe injuries may prompt a first aid kit.
Potential risk: Caitlin or the cameraman might be injured when the Killer swings the hammer and both tumble on their sides, hitting the sofa.
Consequence of outcome: The camera might be damaged and the respective crew might be unable to shoot the rest of the SYNTH project.
How to avoid the risk: Ensure the area is cushioned securely and do test falls without the equipment to get a feel for it.
What to do in case of the risk: Check the Caitlin and the Cameraman are okay and provide them with medical assistance if not.
Potential risk: Jason must be slid across a counter of glasses and then be held under water which opens many risks.
Consequence of outcome: Jason could be hurt by the glasses shattering or potentially drown when he is pushed into the water.
How to avoid the risk: Replace the glasses with plastic version and cut smashing sounds in post as well as give Jason a cue for when he can’t hold his breath anymore (such as a thumb down) so we know to get him out.
What to do in case of the risk: Ensure Jason can breathe properly and provide him with medical attention.
Potential risk: The cameraman, Frank or Coral could be injured in the final shot where they must track across a wet garden before the killer swings at her.
Consequence of outcome: Anyone of them could fall over and either Coral or the cameraman could be seriously injured by the hammer swing.
How to avoid the risk: Do a few test runs without the equipment to ensure practice and dry as much of the area as is possible.
What to do in case of the risk: Provide immediate medical attention to any of the required team.
