Charlie Hall has identified several potential safety risks and hazards when using equipment for filming. The tripod could move and damage the camera if not kept upright. The camera could also be dropped and broken if not stored properly in its bag when not in use. Cables for charging equipment could cause tripping hazards if left untidy. Food and drinks near computers and other equipment pose hygienic and damage risks if liquids spill inside. All equipment should be handled and stored carefully, cables tidied away, and food and drinks consumed away from work areas.

for future filming.
The camera could be dropped and therefore won't
be fully functional for future filming.
To prevent damages of the camera the camera
should be kept in the camera bag while the user
isn't using it.
Somebody could trip over the charging cable. If the
machine is worked on for a long period of time the
user may get poor posture.
All cables should be kept tidy and out of the way
to prevent tripping over them. The user should
also have regular breaks from working.
Food can get caught in the keyboard and mouse of
a computer. This is unhygienic.
Food should only be consumed outside of the
classroom and not near the computers.
Drinks can ruin a computer and other equipment
such as cameras, phones and microphones. The
drink can get inside the machines and ruin them.
No drinks should be near the equipment. The
drinks should be in bags and be consumed out of
the classroom.
