Risk Assessment


Risk Assessment

 

As me, Sam and Cameron are filming in the woods, we need to take care when filming to ensure no one is hurt or injured. Some of the props could cause injury if not used appropriately and so measures need to be taken to ensure that we are all safe and we do not get hurt.  

Possible Risks
Danger of Risk
Prevention of Risk
 
Getting wet mud on feet
 
Slipping over/falling
Make sure that appropriate footwear is worn or avoid muddy areas if possible
 
Equipment in the way
 
 
 
Falling over/tripping
 
Make sure that all equipment is tidied away to ensure no one can fall over
 
Knifes/nails
 
Could injure or cut hands/body parts
 
Make sure that they aren’t used carelessly `
 
High angled shots
 
Could fall over if standing on a chair/box
 
Make sure that the chair or box is sturdy and you won’t fall off

Costume


Costume

 

Cameron’s Costume –

Cameron will be wearing smart/casual clothes like the ones shown in this picture. Cameron’s character is very dark and he commits a crime by hurting Leona’s character. This costume makes him look powerful and important and it fits with his dark persona. In the flashbacks Cameron is wearing casual clothes because it’s supposed to make the flashbacks look as realistic and normal as possible.

 

 





Leona’s Costume –

Leona will be wearing pyjamas. The reason for this is because she has just escaped from hospital and so she is still in her clothes from the hospital. On her face she will have make-up that will imitate bruising/cuts and blood. This will add affect and make her character fit with the story. In the flashbacks Leona will be wearing casual clothes because these are supposed to look like casual, normal scenes.

 In some of these flashbacks, Leona will have bruising done by make-up as well.

 

In the flashbacks Sam will be wearing casual clothes to again make sure that they look as casual and as normal as possible.

Lighting


We have decided to use lighting in both locations to create suspense and show the difference in location.
For the Bourne Woods scenes, where it is present day for our protagonist, we will film early morning times when the sun is bright but low which will create shadows and build suspense, which with the other areas of Mise-en-scene, camera work, sound,  and editing will make it very tense to watch. With all of this i think that it fits the thriller genre well as it helps to make other areas of our film more suspenseful. It will also be easier to edit with filters.



For the apartment scenes we are going to film when its night so that when using just the lights indoors it will create a lot of shadows which will help add suspense to the scene. I think this suits the thriller genre well as again we are using the lighting to create suspense for the other areas of filming.
