Risk Assessment

Health and safety procedures when filming. When filming in a woodland location, there are a certain amounts of threats to health and safety. Fallen branches, uneven land and rubbish littered by inconsiderate people can cause harm to actors and crew when filming. So to insure safety a risk assessment form has been produced to outline those threats

The logo of the movie company associated with the film.

The age certificate information, allows us to determine what age certificate would be suitably best for our film and for what it features
