For this project, we took a trip to London, to the Harry Potter studios to get some cool pictures of things that we found there, we are going to be using some of the pictures that we have taken to use for this project. We also got to go to 'Stone bridge farm' which I didn't get to attend too, we had to take some photos of the different sorts of animals there. The aim for this is to make a game board packaging using one of the pictures from Harry Potter as the background and then we had to make some freaky creatures out of the images we had taken of the animals at the farm. for example, if we took a photo of a pig, and then took the body off it and put the pigs head on a cow's body, then change some of the effects to make it look a little creepy and weird looking. I have added some photos on here that I took when we went to the Harry Potter studios that I may use as my background for my board case packaging.

Due to not going to the farm, I haven't got any proper pictures of animals but I have got some photos of my horse, cat, rabbit and hamster for now to practice on before going to a farm to take my own pictures of different animals.

Stonebridge farm - Help and Safety - Risk assessment

Before going to the farm we have been asked to do a risk assessment about what sort of dangers we may come across when we are going to the farm/when we are at the farm.

On the way to the farm we have to be careful of -

• Traffic
• Slippy surface
• Other people
• Not to drop the camera
• Not to get lost
• Puddles

What could happen when we are at the farm -

• Might drop the camera
• Slip over
• Trip up
• Animals might not like the equipment
• Animals could bite you
• Be careful what you are touching
• Not to go to places without people saying
• Mud

To stop these from happening you can -

• Put the camera strap around your neck so you don't/can't drop it on anything.
• Make sure you keep the lens cap on when camera is turned off in case it hits onto something
• Hold it when going near animals in case they bit it or break it
•
