Risk assessments are important because they are able to form an integral part of an occupational health and safety management planet. They also are able to determine whether a control program is required for a particular hazard.
Health Safety is importance because it protects the well being of employers, visitors and customers.
Duty Of care
In tort law, a duty of care is a legal obligation which is imposed on an individual requiring adherence to a standard of reasonable care while performing any acts that could foreseeable harm others. It is the first element that must be established to proceed with an action in negligence.
Risk Assessment
A risk assessment is the combined effort of: identifying and analyzing potential events that may negatively impact individuals, assets, and/or the environment; and making judgments.
Hazards
A hazard is an agent which has the potential to cause harm to a vulnerable target. Hazards can be both natural or human induced. Sometimes natural hazards such as floods and drought can be caused by human activity
Hazards and their health and safety.
Weather
When fitting external paved areas ensure that the material used will be slip resistant when wet.
To reduce the risk of slips on ice, frost or snow, you need to assess the risk and put in a system to manage it.
Keep work areas neat and tidy, putting tools, materials, and other items away after use.
Pick up items off the floor, even if they didn’t put them there.
Step over or around obstructions, not on them.
Walk slowly and change directions slowly, especially when carrying a load.
Watch for changes in floor level—such as a few steps or a ramp up or down.
Report lighting problems, such as burned-out bulbs, to maintenance right away.
Use a flashlight if they need more light leaving the facility in the dark.
Lifting Hazards
failure of lifting equipment;
falling loads; and.
workers being crushed by a moving load or lifting equipment.
Carrying a camera
Slipped discs, muscle spasms, rotator cuff syndrome, tendinitis and carpal tunnel are just a few of the occupational hazards that can come from lugging around a heavy bag of gear and turning yourself into a human tripod for a living.
Water Hazards
Water getting onto the equipment which can cause electrocution or explosion of the equipment.
Slipping on the water which should be cleared or warned.
What Are Risks?
Risk is the potential for uncontrolled loss of something of value. Values can be gained or lost when taking risk resulting from a given action or inaction, foreseen or unforeseen.
Examples
damage by fire, flood or other natural disasters.
unexpected financial loss due to an economic downturn, or bankruptcy of other businesses that owe you money.
loss of important suppliers or customers.
decrease in market share because new competitors or products enter the market.
Firstly in order to be able to set up a tripod you must remember to, extend the legs and ensure that the level of the tripod is using the bubble level. In this process please also remember to attach to camera to the tripod shoe, this way you will be able to film things more steady and still.
Storage on the SD card.
A class four SD card is a memory card which supports sustained writing at 4 MB/s or better, where as a Class 10 memory card supports sustained writing at 10 Mb/s or better. This tells us what the difference is between a class four and a class 10 SD card.
The size which would be most suitable for a HD video is, a class 10 rather than the class 4 SD. This is because a class 10 had a higher and better UHS.
Setting up a camera
Insert the camera battery
attach the camera to the shoe of the tripod
Inset the SD card into the camera
Turn on the camera
Set the camera to video mode
Check all auto focus and manual focus setting on the lens of the camera.
Set the camera to the auto exposure with the manual exposure on the camera body
Press the button to be able to record.
What is a Dolly?
A camera dolly is a wheeled cart or similar device used in film making and television production to create smooth horizontalcamera movements. The camera is mounted to the dolly and the camera operator and focus puller or camera assistant usually ride on the dolly to push the dolly back and forth.

This is a type of mechanical game originating in Japan and is used as a recreational arcade game and a gambling device, filling a Japanese gambling comparable to that of the slot machine in Western gaming.
A pachinko machine is suppose to resemble a pinball machine but is different from Western pinball in several ways.
Players get a number of balls by inserting cash or cards directly into the machine they want to use. These balls are then shot into the machine usually pulling a lever once for each launch from a ball tray. The balls then fall vertically through an array of pins, levers, cups, traps and various obstacles until they reach the bottom of the machine screen.
If the first 2 numbers or letters of the spin match up, the digital program will display many animations before the third reel stops spinning, to give the player added excitement. This is called a reach and sometimes longer animations are played called super reaches. Pachinko machines offer different odds in hitting a jackpot; if the player manages to obtain a jackpot the machine will enter into payout mode.
Winnings take the form of additional balls, which players may either use to keep playing or exchange for prizes. When players wish to exchange their winnings, they must call a parlor staff member by using a call button located at the top of their station. The staff member will then carry the player’s balls to an automated counter to see how many balls they have. After recording the number of balls the player won and the number of the machine they used, the staff member will then give the player a voucher or card with the number of balls stored in it.

My Story Board Idea
Main character stands in front of the camera, directly in the middle but the back is turned round. Camera is zoomed in at this point
Camera zooms out and the character turns around so we can see its face.
Gun is pulled out in her right arm
left arm had been raised and the camera moves towards the right.
Begins shooting to the right with the gun and fire is released in the shot.
Camera moves further to the right and we see a army attacking her.
All army men fall down, being defeated.
Camera turns left back to the focus of the main character.
Character kneels down with head down, and gun on the floor.
Wires on the floor could cause a tripping hazard while in process of filming, which could result in injury.
Any camera lighting stand could fall over and hit someone, falling onto them while filming, resulting in injury.
Green Screen Roar Footage
Transferring Green screen- SD card- PC Process.
I done this process by firstly being able to put the SD card into the camera, to then record the green screen footage of each individual person including myself. Then once the footage was finished being filmed it had been saved onto the SD card, which in that case it was taken out of the slot in the camera into a SD card reader linked into the computer to save it onto my own document and edit it on premiere, using different visual effects.
So far using premier i have managed to transfer my footage onto premier and used the razor tool to cut of any unneeded audio and extra footage which was not needed on my video. I had also dragged the original green screen footage behind the background image which i have decided i would be using to create this video.
Using the opacity use the box to cut out anything which is not part of the green screen and only focus on the green screen.
Using the eyedropper remember to select the color green before doing this. Also remember to use ultra key from the edit drop down box and drag it into the clip.
Blur taken away by tweeting pedestal to a higher number.
Editing my video footage and settings.
In this i had used the saturation to turn my self black and white to suit the theme and background i am using in this. I have also use hue and lighting to make it look more realistic and to stand out more clearly to the viewers. I have done all of this by using the garbage mask and matte.

Finished wagon wheel.
Added material from file.
3-D Modelling Cirque Questions
Good or bad?
I think this project went quite well as i have learnt new things and developed new skills, but other than that the shape and whole lay out and materials of the wagon wheel has came out very well.
Does it look real or stylized?
I would say this looks more stylized then it does realistic.
I rate this model a 7 out of 10 as for some things could have been improved such as the sticks and the sizing of them and where they are positioned. But i rate the color and texturing a 8 out of 10. These could be improved by adding more texture than color.
This whole model was quite easy to do once i had knew the basic instructions. The hardest part of the model to make was the middle and the easiest was the ring around it all. I’ve learnt new tools by making this model using Maya, such as creating a pipe which could come in very useful for future projects which come up during my course.
My favorite part of creating the model was adding the materials as it was interesting to see what my creation had looked like with the color and textures of the materials once finished.
This is more likely to be featured in a western type action, adventure game then any other sort of game, most suitable for a 3-D platform game up to its standard for that type of platform. This model is similar to the wagon wheels used in the game called Red Dead Redemption.
This could be used in other assets of a game such as wheels on cannons, wagons or just laying about in plain sight with in the game.
Good parts in which people like about my game are.
The game is made to be dark and scary which makes it terrifying, there are good character ideas and there is a good aim of the game and adjective. The unique selling points are the characters, missions, the story- line and the game mehanics.
The best three features in my game are:
graphics, mechanics and influences.
i could develop this idea further by including more character designs and target audience information.
This game is said to be realistic by feedback because, of the amount of detail included in the game, the objective of the game and the characters.
I think that my pitch is well done with plenty of details and very realistic, to actually become a game which could sell. I have received good feedback by others which i am pleased about and did well in the elevating pitch, controls, mechanics and more.
I am making a game pitch on a game called the dark of the night, which is a horror/ mystery adventure game taken place in a 3rd person perspective. In this game you will play as a boy or a girl character which is made optional at the beginning of the game before you begin on the 20, 30 minutes quests included in the game being pitched. The player will be able to interact with there character while they complete puzzles, murder mystery and much more included in the game.
Included in my pitch i have made my own game logo, and a company name which is called Horror’s Desire.
Project Description

Core Game Mechanics
Missions- Missions provide the players with different types of objectives for the player to be able to accomplish as an individual. Once the mission in the game has been completed, users may feel the sense of the accomplishment in which they have achieved then, selves. The game dynamics work along side with the missions in the game, there include things, such as the community, competition, achievement, surprise and exploration.

Objects included in the game will be, equipment used by characters such as weapons, maps, torches and other interactive objects around them in the game environment.
Influences to make this video game pitch.
Number one
This game is inspired my murder mysteries game which you are able to play on your phone and PC where you solve puzzles and find clues to lead you onto the next part of the game to find the criminal. This became an influence because I thought and realized that it would be great if you could include this into an interactive 3D platform console game instead of just the old 2-D platform games with less content included inside of the game.
Number Two
The theme of this game is inspired by the movie of Alice and wonderland, but instead of it being more childlike, it has been made dark and into a horror game like the Alice and wonderland horror game itself.
I choose this as an influence to make the map more interesting and entertaining to explore while playing the game, and there are more things for you to interact with and discover.
Number three
My influence on the villain characters is inspired by dragons as for she is a serial killer, but designed as a dragon like monster, with horns and wings on fire in the game which goes around killing the people in the forest for the player to find clues to find her.
I found a dragon, human like serial killer monster would be an interesting idea for the bad guy in my game, and would attract more people to play and purchase this game.
