Risks related to audiovisual equipment
Audiovisual equipment is frequently moved, in keeping with many changes of scenery. It is put to intensive use in many industries like cinema, television, concerts, festivals, sporting events, trade shows and fairs.
Depending on the setting, there may be technical constraints and special conditions of use. These materials, which are often expensive and fragile, are exposed to many different risks during all of this:
- Breakage caused by bumps while being moved.
- A drop or incorrect handling resulting in damage.
- Damage caused by bad weather (wind, rain) at an outdoor event.
- Theft, with or without breaking and entering, during use.
- A fire cause by electrical malfunction.
Specific audiovisual equipment loss adjusting skills
Whatever industry they work in, professionals may need to use a wide variety of audiovisual equipment and devices. This makes it difficult to estimate the value of each piece and the severity of damage in the event of a claim.
Audiovisual equipment generally falls into one of four major categories:
- Video: video cameras, still cameras, lenses, accessories, etc.
- Sound: microphones, UHF sets, etc.
- Light: projectors, on-camera lights, etc.
- Scenic structures: bridge cranes, decor, etc.
