The person in charge of the whole production will be the director. The director will decide and finalize what goes into the show. After that comes the FM who is the Directors voice on the floor; basically any crew cannot disturb the director whilst he is doing his job other than the floor manager. So this means that if their are any problems on the floor the crew will have to go through the FM, it is then up to the FM to sort any problems out. However if the FM cannot sort out the problem the FM can then ask the director for help - but this is only if the problem cannot be fixed. However if there is a problem and it can be fixed the FM will have to tell the director that there is a problem (not what the problem is) and then tell the director how long it will take to sort out.
The FM will also interact with the talent: Most of the time the talent are guests so the FM will have to run through any health and safety with the talents and also get them in the mood for the show!
Health and safety in a studio is very important, as their are many cables, heavy equipment and hot lights around. For example: You could trip over any cables that have not been managed to get tucked away, drop a peice of equipment and injure yourself and also in the unlikely event of a light dropping down this could a) injure somebody and b) start a fire, so it is important that ALL crew and talent are informed on what to do if anything like the above happens. In a professional situation it would be likely that there would be an accident report book on hand so any accidents that may occur can be recorded and looked at to see if there is anything that can be done in order to prevent it from happening again.
It is important that the set doesn't stand out from the talent. Dark colours work alot better than bright colours as the talent will not be able to wear black or stripes as this can allow the cameras to pick up a bad signal - so the talent will be limited to mainly bright colours - allowing them to stand our from the background.
