Abstract
A scenic artist's workplace needs to facilitate efficient painting in safe working conditions. The actual painting tools that scenic artists need are frequently their own property and are not supplied by the work site. However, there are some physical characteristics of a workplace, like the floor itself, that are critical to the suitability of a workplace for a scenic artist. Scene studios are potentially hazardous environments that demand special protection and equipment for those working in them. Toxic paints and chemicals, powerful electrical equipment, scaffolds and ladders, high noise levels, and many other potential hazards are present. For this reason, the materials, equipment, and even the design of the shop itself must meet the regulations of the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Other rules that must be considered are local fire and building codes, environmental protection rules, and toxic waste disposal regulations.
