Risk Assessment For Photo-Shoot

Hazard	Risk	Controlling risk	Record findings	Review
Location	The location can affect everyone on the set, for example, a shoot in the forest may involve risks such as tripping over tree stumps or get hit on the head by a low hanging branch.	May look for a similar location with fewer risks and hazards, or look for a safer area in the location you are in.	Look for clear areas and make sure to be sensible around the busier and hazardous areas.	Only use a location where you think everyone will be safe during the photo-shoot.
Lighting	If the area you are doing the photo-shoot in is very dark, others may trip over due to not being able to see where they are going.	If the shoot needs to be dark, then bring mobile lights with you so that the others can still see whilst the photo-shoot will be dark.	Wait for the lighting to get better or bring mobile lighting equipment with you.	Go during the day or bring mobile lighting with you. (artificial lights, lamps, etc)
Weather	If the weather is bad (eg rain or snow or wind etc) people may be prone to falling over.	Before booking the time or day of the photo-shoot check the weather forecast for the day and time to make sure the conditions will be suitable.	Only do the shoot on days where the conditions are suitable for the shoot, and make sure that the people there will be safe.	Check the weather forecast the day before you go on the photo-shoot.
Roads/cars	If the model or photographer is stood close to the road then a car may accidentally hit them.	Ask someone to watch the road during the photo-shoot and to signal you if a car is coming towards you.	Wait until the cars go past you and check if you see any cars coming towards you.	Keep checking if there is a car coming towards you.

Publication Plan

Title: ICED OUT

(original font used: Blax Slab XXL)

 

Price: £4.00

 

Frequency of publication: 1 Issue per quarter (every 3 months)

 

Distribution Methods: Newsagents, Supermarkets, Record stores, Music shops (for example HMV)

 

Aims: Profit is the main aim of the magazine because if too little money is earned through the magazine then there is no point in continuing to produce it. the secondary aim is to convey information on the most current events in the Hip-Hop world through a high quality product, which is why the price is £4.00 per copy. The price of music magazines range from £1.60 to £4.95, and I have chosen to go slightly over the middle price of this.

 

Reasoning behind the Magazine: The magazine will not only inform and educate readers to what is currently happening in the Hip-Hop/Rap world, but allow them to interact and allow them to have input on the magazine, I have made this possible by creating a '50 best songs' title in the contents page, which implies that the readers will be able to compare their opinions to those of the content creators. The content of the magazine is written from the perspective of a conscious Hip-Hop enthusiast, and as this is the targeted audience, readers should be able to understand the perspective and respect it. Although some readers will have more understanding of the Hip-Hop world, this magazine is also user-friendly, in the sense that people who are somewhat new to the scene will be able to know what the content is saying.

Style: the magazine is intended to be largely informal with the use of Hip-Hop jargon and slang, as well as some jokes critical of others in the Hip-Hop scene, however some sections such as interviews with rappers will contain some formal elements, such as their thoughts on recent events in the scene, and how they feel about their music, as many rappers have deep meaning and emotions about their music, and in their music such as Drake. There will be a balance between the images and amount of text.

Regular content:

• Multiple Mixtape/ album review
• interviews with up & coming rappers
• interviews with some of the biggest names in Hip-Hop
• creator's thoughts on rappers and their projects/ up coming music
• creator's playlist, with link to Spotify playlist
• things happening in the scene- beefs, possible collaborations etc
