Risk assessment

Location
- One main risk about the location is weather people will be able to make it there, we will have to advise them to drive safely as our location is on a country road and you can't always see the cars coming round the corner.
- Another risk is that there is hardly any parking so we will have to make sure we get everyone is to be dropped off.
People
- We will have to make sure that anyone with a condition like asthma, epilepsy or anything that requires them to take medication, to bring what they need is necessary to cope with it and for anyone with something like epilepsy we would have to take into account not to use any flashing lights.
- The same goes for anyone with allergies as I have a dog, also we will have food at the table so we must make sure that any of our cast tells us about anything like that before we start filming, and if its something we can't help for them to bring an Epipen.
-We must make sure that no one trips up any wires as there will be a lot of people in the room and if we need to plug any lights in or the camera we must make sure that no one trips over the wires.
Costume
- We must make sure that if anyone in the cast reacts badly to certain material and we ask them to wear a specific item of clothing, for them to tell us that they cant wear it and then we can find a replacement. 
- If we are going to light any candles to make are video more atmospheric we must make sure that we take extra caution that none of us are close enough to the flame to catch any of the clothing on fire, or anything like that for that matter.

Props and makeup

Make up
The make up will be plain on most of the characters but for those who have more secrets they will wear more make-up (mainly the women). This will represent that they have a lot of secrets and hidden truths that they are covering up.
Props
For props we will have food around the table and general things you would typically find in a dinning room. Where the chairs are placed and how high or grand they are will show superiority, class and importance.
The clock will be of the most importance as the whole movie is based around time, how it's running out and that someone dies at 8 o'clock (the are also 8 people at the dinner party). The clock will be zoomed in on and shot in time lapse to give the idea of time going forwards and the idea of flashbacks and things as such.

Genre

The genre of the movie will be a psychological thriller/ murder mystery. We will show this in our opening scene by putting the camera in high places or in awkward positions so that the audience will think something is odd. This will also be shown by the quick jump cuts and how a lot of the shots, from shot to shot, will go from close up to long shot for dramatic effect. The difference in lighting in the shots will further add to the off-putting atmosphere the opening scene should give off.
The murder and the confusion around it should further prove the genre.

Audition video

In this we auditions a select few people for the relatively important roles and audition them for our movies opening scene we chose some more people after this and didn't include some. We decided to include myself as the protagonist as I knew the script and how we wanted to have the voice over sound. We were grateful for the people who did decide to help that they did.
