Person(s) exposed (detail if cast/crew (C), outside company (O) or public (P) )

Person(s) exposed (detail if cast/crew (C), outside company (O) or public (P) )

CREW, AUDIENCE

Person(s) exposed (detail if cast/crew (C), outside company (O) or public (P) )

CAST & CREW

Action to take The exhibition space is fairly small, so the area must be made safe for walking through. The projector must also be set up so it does not connect with anybody’s eyes.

Hazard no: 19 Risk Factor (1-5) 1Description RADIATION

Person(s) exposed (detail if cast/crew (C), outside company (O) or public (P) )

CREW, AUDIENCE

Action to take The video art will be projected onto a radiator via a projector. The projector radiates a light that is potentially harmful if stared at. The radiator will most likely be turned off, but if it is turned on, this will also produce heat. The projector will face away from people to reduce risk, while the radiator presents little problem.
