This risk assessment document identifies potential hazards for an upcoming music magazine photoshoot at the Nene Park Academy Digital Media Studio on April 11th. Hazards identified include tripping over cables, limited space creating trip hazards, potential for electric shock, and bright lighting possibly damaging eyesight. The document evaluates each hazard and outlines control measures to manage the risks, such as moving cables out of the way, ensuring equipment does not obstruct space, only using electrical equipment if trained to do so, and adjusting lighting brightness to suit the photoshoot while preventing blindness.
