We decided to begin our film with a warning for photosensitive epilepsy because it will be featuring flashing lights. At the beginning when our production company names appear there is flashing lights and Dom's sister told her that we should include it.
This information below is taken from Microsoft game website:
Photosensitive Seizure Warning A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these "photosensitive epileptic seizures" while watching video games. These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including light headedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects.
Having read this I think our film does need the warning because the slightest flash could start a seizure in people with photosensitive epilepsy. Below is an image taken from our film of our warning:
