The first thing that Susannah told us is that we must not work on our own in the studio. There should always be at least one other person working with you for safety and security.
Susannah went through the potential hazards in the studio such as trailing cables, heavy flats and furniture for set building and the importance of setting up flats correctly. We were shown the step ladders and also which tools were required for each job and how to safely operate them.
To set up the flat correctly at least two people must work together to carry and erect the flats. The flats require at least one A frame support which is to be bolted in two places to the flat and two places on its grounded leg, which must then be weighted. The graphics below are posted on Blackboard for reference.
These pictures show the flats that we erected in the studio.
