Tripping over wires While in the black box studio, there will
be wires on the floor from the lighting
equipment, so with minimal light in a
dark room it can be very easy to trip
over them and injure yourself.
Making sure the wires are out of the way.
Taping the wires to the floor so that they are
not in the air, this means that people will not
trip over them.

Location Precaution London is very busy and there are a lot
of people there, so it is essential to be
careful when filming around people, to
not anger anyone.
Make sure that all equipment taken out
is not lost or stolen.
Make sure to be careful around people and
not filmclose ups of strangers especially as
they have not given permission.
Keep the camera holder around your neck at
all times so that it cannot be stolen.

2. Damage to
Equipment
Equipment could become damaged eg.
they could be dropped. The equipment
needs to be well looked after.
Continuously check all equipment to see if
they are all still correctly working.

Leaving lighting on A fire could start if the lights are left
switched on for too long, which is very
dangerous.
The lights get very hot, of course the
longer they are switched on, the hotter
they get so if someone comes in to
contact with them, they will burn
themselves.
Turn of the certain lights that are not in use,
this is mean that they will not become hotter
for no reason. This prevents the possibility of
a fire.
