What is a common trip hazard on film sets?

• A. Cables and wires that should be covered or taped down.
• B. The color of the camera body.
• C. The brand of lighting equipment.
• D. The script's font.

Answer: (A)

Trip hazards on film sets come from loose cables and wires across walkways. Sets have many power, audio, and data cables that can run across floors, and if they’re not secured, people can trip over them, risking injuries and interrupting the shoot. That’s why crews tape cables down or cover them with mats, route them away from paths, and use cable ramps. These practices keep walking areas clear and protect both people and equipment. The other factors listed—color of the camera body, brand of lighting equipment, or the script’s font—don’t affect physical safety or trip risk.
