Location Scout and Risk Assessment

in this post we will select two of our intended locations and determine potential risks that may be involved when shooting there (this was made by me (Kimora) and Eileen also with the help of Cassie and Tisha's ideas)

Location 1: monkey forest 

Location 1

Pros of location:	There are traditional dances (we won't have to spend more) There is a temple
Cons of location:	Can possibly rain It is around an hour drive to get there (can be time consuming or costful) Cost 60-100k per person
Alternatives:	What other locations can you shoot at if there are issues here? Restaurants nearby Ubud markets
Risk Assessment
Potential hazards:	What dangers are there? Monkey can attack  Monkey can steal our belongings Big trees can fall Some stairs or pathways can be dark
Evaluate risks:	What bad things could happen? Monkey can attack -> we can get injured Monkey can steal our belongings (we might lose our phones, bags, etc.) Big trees can fall -> we can get injured Some stairs or pathways can be dark -> we can stumble or fall
Control measures:	Check weather app a few hours before going there

Reflection: this location scout and safety analysis helped us identify the possible risks or potential hazards that we could experience when filming in the locations, we then evaluated the risks and figure out ways to overcome them, this helped us create back up plans if there are any problems while filming
