Health and safety requirements

When creating a graphic narrative there are safety precautions that need to be considered when working. Especially when one is doing digital art or traditional art. It is very important that you keep in mind these factors.
Having a tiltable screen is something that all digital artists should have. this is because when you done have a screen that is tillable you could put strain on tour neck and have neck problems. In studios anti-glare screen filters are extremely useful. If you are in a job which requires you to work long hours at a computer all day, eye strain is very common. Without anti-glare you could receive headaches or migraines. Another main important health factor is you have an adjustable chair. Back support is so important when doing any sort of drawing or writing because a lot of the time, when we draw we tend to arch out backs and bend towards the paper or computer. Too much of this can cause bad back pains and possible long term damage. It is better to sit straight with both feet flat on the ground.

A few other thing to consider:
  • make sure lighting is suitable
  • make sure workstations are not cramped
  • plan work at a computer so that there are frequent breaks
