Location Scout and Risk Assessment

This is an assessment of two possible locations for our shoot. This work was done by all of us.

Location 1: Bali Festival Park, Padang Galak

Location 1

Location:

Bali Festival Park, Padang Galak

https://maps.app.goo.gl/B3NaMWdcjS535JXx6

Events in scene:

We'll be wandering around the site, exploring the rooms and

the sight of graffiti on the walls.

Pros of location:

  • Perfect for urban exploring lovers
  • Location is filled with graffiti, giving an adventurous vibe
  • Location is completely abandoned

Cons of location:

  • Filled with wild animals
  • Homeless people inhabiting some of the rooms
  • Shafts dug into the ground with water in them

Alternatives:

Hotel Pondok Indah Bedugul, Bedugul

Risk Assessment 

Potential hazards:

  • Wild animals, like snakes and spiders
  • Shafts dug into the ground with water in them
  • Unsafe as no official guards are present
  • Surrounded by huge forest
  • Homeless people living in some of the empty rooms
  • Possibility of tsunami as the location is by the beach
  • Possibility of building collapse as it's old

Evaluate risks: 

  • Wild animals might unexpectedly attack us
  • Homeless inhabitants might be unfriendly
  • Shafts can be everywhere so we have to watch our steps
  • Tsunami might hit and completely wash off the site
  • Building collapse might take place at any time

Control measures:

We'll make sure to wear boots, bring torches with

extra batteries, and some money just in case.

Responsibility:

Me (Kenneth)

Time frame:

A few days before shooting.

Other notes:

If the place feels too unsafe and risky for us to go alone, we might bring some friends with us.


Location 2: Hotel Pondok Indah Bedugul, Bedugul

Location 2

Location:

Hotel Pondok Indah Bedugul, Bedugul

https://maps.app.goo.gl/ZBFLJ86iZzQPUMbp8

Events in scene:

We'll be wandering around the site, exploring the rooms within the site.

Pros of location:

  • Easy entrance
  • Horror stories about the location adds to the chills it gives out
  • Have been abandoned for so long

Cons of location:

  • Unsafe as no official guards are present
  • Partly covered by vegetations
  • Possibility of collapse, due to being old

Alternatives:

Bali Festival Park, Padang Galak

https://maps.app.goo.gl/B3NaMWdcjS535JXx6

Risk Assessment 

Potential hazards:

  • Wild animals, like snakes and spiders
  • Unsafe as no official guards are present
  • Surrounded by huge forest, building partly covered by vegetations
  • Possibility of massive wind force, as the location is high up on a hill
  • Possibility of building collapse due to being old

Evaluate risks: 

  • Wild animals might attack us
  • Possibility of bumping into bad guys at the site
  • Huge wind force might blow our handheld belongings away
  • Building might collapse at any time

Control measures:

We'll keep an eye on our belongings as we take shots there. We'll also be bringing torches with

extra batteries, and money in case we need some.

Responsibility:

Me (Kenneth)

Time frame:

A few days before shooting.

Other notes:

If the place feels too unsafe and risky for us to go alone, we might bring some friends with us.

Reflection:
I wrote down the pros and cons of the first location, and its risk assessment.
This helps provide us with valuable insights into the location itself and the challenges we may encounter on arriving on site. Without this proactive approach, we risk wasting significant time addressing unforeseen issues that could have been anticipated.

Statement of Intent

This is our statement of intent. We all worked together on this.

I did most of the writing and crafted some of the ideas. I also tried to insert a few hilarious lines, but they weren't that well received by my teammates.
