a) What are the health and safety risks for when you carry out your photo-shoots? In the studio, we need to be careful not to touch any of the equipment without permission from college staff or unless it's been set up, as it could break or we could get injured. Turn the studio lights off after use and ask staff if you're not sure of anything, also don't step on the backdrop with shoes on.
 - What potential hazards are there? The lights could heat up, fuse box will need to be used if there's a power cut, hanging wires and cables from lights
- What things will you need to consider before hand? We need to make sure to make sure the cameras and equipment are all properly handled as they're expensive, and to make sure we have the proper permissions to enter the studio
- What are the solutions to these risks/hazards? To prevent injuries, we can put up warnings or move the cables from their original position.
