A year ago, the Scottish Falsetto Sock Puppet Theatre were in discussion to produce a series of Health & Safety induction videos for a company in the offshore oil drilling business. We produced a series of 9 demo videos, trying out the initial ideas for the project. At which point the international oil price plummeted and the oil business had to cut its spending slightly. (Today BP announced major job losses, which is not an unusual thing in the industry at the moment).
So it is that the videos have sat in waiting for the past year. But now that they're not about to be developed any further, not immediately leastways, we're able to share them with you. Above we see the Socks tackling the topic of Bribery (important for representatives of the oil industry working in some countries more than others). Here, for your delight and delectation, is the complete set of videos...
Health & Safety Introduction
H&S - No Business Objective
H&S - Hazards
H&S - Legal
H&S - Environment
H&S - Responsibility
H&S - Training
H&S - Communications & Targets
H&S - Bribery
They may be a bit subject specific to be of wide entertainment value, but parts of them are good for a laugh. Think of them as The Socks' equivalent of John Cleese's Video Arts training films from back in the day.
