HEALTH AND SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS.

There is a risk with going to a race as the bike could hit you, you get hit by a person flying off their bike. We could walk into a tree or trip on some roots or branches and fall and break the camera. To prevent these from happening we need to be careful where we walk and always be aware of racers. Also we will need to bring plenty of water and snacks so we don't go hungry or dehydrated.

LEGAL AND ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS.

We aren’t doing any discrimination and there is no offensive themes. We need permission to interview people and to actually be at the event which we will get as soon as possible.

Representations of gender.

There will be both male and female genders there. We will not be sexist or offensive to one particular gender or leave them out of the footage on purpose. We will represent them as equals.

Copyright for music used

Music that will be used will be under creative commons, or music that can be used unless you are profiting from it to promote your product.

Consent forms for actors and locations

We need consent forms for the interviews, and also for the the one location we are going to but other than that we should be okay.
