How will the Actors convey the Feeling

The actors Kashif and Zuned will portray their emotions and convey their feelings by using facial expressions to show their emotions and how they are feeling and they will also exaggerate their feelings for the camera to show that they are actually more scared in the film then they actually are, This would mean that the audience would engage with the actors and they would empthasise with the actors. Feeling scared is an emotion which the actors would have to protray the best because horror is the ganre of our short film.

Risk assessment/ location
We as a group will need to carry out a risk assessment because we need to make sure that that the location we are going to use to for our 1 minute video. We need to make sure that the location we use is safe. For our  location we are going to use a room in the school and set the room up to suit it to our needs. Also we will need to look at the location that we are going to use because it could problems such  lose wires which could be dangerous because someone could trip over them and hurt themselves or could get electrocuted. For our video we are going to use Saiful's house and the risk factors could be the rain comes and this may cause one of the crew members to slip and hurt themselves. Also there is a computer there with lose wires. This is a risk factor because someone could fall over and hurt themselves and also its dangerous with the electricity and the ICT equipment.

Equipment list/Budgeting:
Camera- £300
tripod- £150
Macbook for editing- £800
Editing software- £100
props- £50
lighting equipment- £20
Total budget- £1420

Mood/ Genre
First of all, the genre of our short film will be comedy and horror. This is because we have found that a majority of the people that we asked to fill our questionnaire preferred a movie that was comedic and scary. This told us that we could make a successful film by choosing a comedy genre or a horror genre, but we decided that we will combine the two genres to allow for a larger audience to project our film at. The mood of our film will be funny as well as being scary and thrilling. We decided that this would be a good mood to show in the film because it makes people nervous and anxious when watching the parts at which there is some form of horror, and then also gives them relief and joy them when it comes to the more comedic phase of the film. The way that we decided on the mood of our film is our researching the moods that are shown by other, already existing, movies and then integrating that information into our project.
Story layout:
The start of the film will consist of a man in his early 20's who is throwing a night Halloween party and his having fun enjoying his time with his friends. POINT OF EQUILIBRIUM. After he has the party all the guests leave and then he goes to relax while watching a scary movie in his home. While watching the scary movie he receives a phone call and is terrified because he gets a threat over the phone by a voice which he doesn't recognise. 

The middle section of the story is when the man has just finished receiving the threat on the phone. He then notices that there is someone knocking on the door, but he can't actually see anyone there. So being cautious he walks towards the door slowly and as he gets closer he gets more scared. He then grabs a rubber chicken that is lying on a nearby table ,other than the cricket bat right next to it, and goes to open the door. POINT OF DISRUPTION. When he opens the door he screams only to find that there is a small child in a costume asking for some candy. He then relaxes and gives the boy some candy.

The end of the story is when the man closes the door feeling more secure, and when he turns around he gets a fright by seeing his friend with a very unexpected look on his face. He then finds out that it was a prank and then he calms down and resumes with the relaxing, of watching a scary movie. RESTORATION OF EQUILIBRIUM.
