Prop used: Pellet Gun
During our video we were aware with the risk of shooting in public with a Pellet gun due to that fact it could make the public very uncomfortable. We therefore took this into consideration and went to the Metropolitan Police Town Centre in Walthamstow. The police said it was fine and gave us permission with some guidelines.
The following guidelines:
.The pellet gun must not contain bullets whether it be plastic or metal or any sort of object within the gun.
. It must be put away out of sight when finished filming.
.The trigger cannot be pulled in any circumstances.
.Failure to follow these guidelines will result in prosecution.
We took these guidelines very well into consideration and followed these steps. In addition the two main reasons which made the police comfortable was the fact the the actual pellet gun itself could not function properly in any way and was completely disabled and we kept a sign saying "Filming in Progress" which made the public feel more comfortable. Which is why the video shoot went efficiently and safely .
For safety we took permission from our local police before using the prop so that without any concerns we would have a proof if any concerns would arise.
