Safety Report Done..

* Reflection:  I had tried – unsuccessfully – to write my safety report before last Friday’s class at uni whereby I was able to do a trial run of my film shoot. This is due to the fact that I’ve never actually used the dolly and tracks therefore I couldn’t anticipate the potential dangers. Going through the steps of setting up the equipment the equipment and filming the main issue I recognized is that of a spatial one. I need approximately four hands on deck to assist in the tracking and tripod stability. Since the tripod is not huge the four individuals need to be choreographed in a particular position so as not to cause friction and ruin the smoothness of the shot if they bump into each other, which is a safety hazard also.
