This risk assessment document evaluates the risks involved for a student filming a project in the town centre. It identifies four main risks: carrying heavy equipment, bumping into others, dropping equipment, and dealing with uncooperative members of the public. For each risk, it rates the degree of risk, lists existing control measures, and proposes additional actions to further mitigate the risks. The student and staff are identified as being at risk. With control measures in place, all risks are rated as having a remote probability of occurring.
