My main hazard was the whether. I filmed in snow and therefore there was a hazard. This is because the snow is soft and also very icy. When some one has already stood / walked through the snow it becomes hard and increases the likely hood of some one slipping on it. This could cause a lot of harm to the person slipping and be very painful.
Step 2_ Who might be harmed by the hazard while filming.
My whole cast is at danger of harm. Even me, as the camera operator, was at harm. This is because any one any where could have stood on ice of tripped on something under the snow. At some stages of filming, the tripod was on un-even leg heights because the snow was uneven and there was things under the snow. Aaron who was my main actor was in a big risk of being harmed because I asked him to run through the snow.
Step 3_ Evaluating the risk.
The severity of the risk taken by me and my actors was not very big. We all knew what we was doing and where at a low risk of very serious harm however, some harm could have arose. To reduce the risk at the source I should have asked my actor to run slow. This would have minimised the risk of him falling, slipping or tripping. However we did not need to do this because he did not fall as we filmed where not many people had been.
Step 4_ Record significant findings.

Step 5_ Review and Revising my risk assesment.
There was no significant change to prevent accidents as the only change I could have made would have been to scoop away the snow or not film in the snow at all. This would have then made a total different feel to the video and this is why I have notified my self of the risk and alerted people within my video of them also.
