Health And Safety Risk Assessment

When we entered our filming location, nearly every room in the house was covered in glass and lots of other broken objects like kitchen sinks etc. Also upstairs on the landing the floor boards were all missing and broken, we managed to move away enough so that it was safe but still keeping enough so that the antagonist can walk across in the film opening. The two main rooms in the house that we used, where the antagonist kept his victims, we had to completely clear the floor of broken glass and china as the two characters needed to be sitting on the floor, although we still had to keep some objects in place to keep the atmosphere of the location and to try to stick to the codes and conventions of a thriller as best as we could.

This photo was taken before we cleaned out the room, we had to remove the broken sink, but we managed to find a small piece that would fill in the hole seen on the floor in the corner when the protagonist would be kept hostage, also it helped add to the atmosphere, by allowing the room to still seem run down and dirty. In the videos below you can see the finished room as we wanted it to be seen in our thriller opening.

This is Robbie, sweeping out the main room of our set, making sure that it is completely safe for all of our group.

This is Robbie clearing the landing space to ensure that it is safe for all members of the group to walk across.
