Filming with Weapons in Public
Surrey Police has produced guidance for all Media and/or Film departments in schools, further and higher education establishments in the county to provide instruction on the reporting of planned filming with weapons; and general information and advice.
When considering filming in a public place using imitation firearms organisers MUST consider the relevant legislation. Carrying an imitation weapon in a public place is an offence which can lead to six months imprisonment and/or a fine. If the sequence does require the use of imitation firearms then organisers should always search for private locations to conduct this type of filming.
If a public location must be used, a risk assessment should be undertaken before filming commences. This risk assessment should include consideration to the risk or potential risk of harassment, alarm or distress to the public in sequences involving the use of weapons.
For further information, please see the guidance document (159kb PDF).
