Camera shot

Cut to close up of her head rising from the water

Risk assessment
The actor needs to be willing to be underwater and trust the villain actor. Also, must be aware of the fact that there will be water so the crew must take care of the equipment and themselves.

Sixth scene

Risk assessment
The actor playing Nina should be careful not to hurt herself when she falls to the ground.

Camera shots

Risk assessment
The actor should ensure she should not slip in the pool of fake blood.
