Location



The large open space had alot of horse machinery at the back of it, we were told by the owners that we had to stay away from it because there was a risk of damage to the actors and because some of the machinery wasn't safe and could fall over if we went near it. Therefore we stayed away from that end of the barn so that everyone stayed safe why we were filming.




We had to be careful when we were dealing with the hay bales in our opening sequence, firstly because they are were very unstable and they could easily fall on one of our actors and secondly because they are highly flammable and therefore could cause a serious fire if we used anything with a flame near them.



These pictures above show some of the risk related objects in the barn, as you can see there are sharp tools and bottles of medicine in the corner that we had to stay away from when filming to ensure that our cast did not get injured and to respect the owners of the barns wishes.










Our location is a small horse-barn that we have been allowed to film in by the owners, it is on the outskirts of Hillesley and is easy to get access to. It meets all of our needs in terms of what we want for filming however a few things have been changed in our planning of how we are going to film because of the location (specified in risk assessment).
