Car accident	On public road	As we had a child on set, this was a risk as she could have easily run into the busy road therefore resulting to an accident.	In order to prevent this, we accompanied the child at all times to avoid an accident taking place.
Holding the knife	Jasleen’s House, bedroom	The child in our trailer had to hold a knife for the poster; the risk was that she could hurt herself or someone else around her.	To prevent this risk from taking place, we made sure we were in a safe environment i.e. surroundings were clear so no one trips over and cause a hazard.
Walking up the ladder, leading to the attic	Navneet’s House, attic	The risk of this scene was as that someone could have slipped and hurt themselves as it was high up furthermore this was more risky as we had a child in the scene. In addition equipment could also get damaged if it isn’t secured enough.	To avert this risk, we organised the scene in depth so therefore we could get the scene over and done with quickly.  We also accompanied the child at all times so no harm is caused to her.
Drawing of the baby scene	Navneet’s house-  bedroom	In this scene we had a baby present, the baby was on the bed on its own and this was a risk as he could have rolled off and hurt himself.	To evade this risk, we shot the scene quickly; furthermore we guarded the bed whilst the scene was shot.
Bedroom scene	Jasleen’s house - bedroom	We shot this scene in the dark, the risk was that someone could have fallen over in the dark and hurt themselves.	To avoid this risk we made sure everyone was in their correct positions so they knew where to go in the dark additionally we did practise runs before hand so everyone was familiar with their roles and positions.
Chandelier scene	Navneet’s house – living room	In this scene it was required to shake the chandelier, the risk was that if we shook it too hard then it could have collapsed and fallen onto someone.	We avoided this risk by gently shaking the chandelier; furthermore we edited the scene to achieve the shaky look.
