We need to ensure that full safety precautions are in place for our shoot day. This includes getting a complete first aid kid, two fire extinguishers, a working phone and a crash mat for some of the falling scenes.
Making sure safety precautions are made is an essential part of video production and is necessary to help out in the event that an accident occurs.
