The Making of a Movie: Preproduction
0 Comments Published by rozalinarosli April 18th, 2008 in school of film & animation.
There are many different types of movies, and each one is made differently. However, they all go through the same process.
A movie starts off in preproduction, where the idea for a movie is conceived and planned out. In this part of the production, it could be as simple as jotting down the shots you want to have, or it could be as complicated as writing an entire script and drawing storyboards for every shot.
For the most part, the more time spent in preproduction, the better the movie will be. Professionals spend 80 percent of their time in preproduction. If you are making a movie with a purpose, knowing what you want before you pick up a camera will save you a great deal of time later.
If you are unsure of what the final outcome is going to be, you will end up shooting a lot more footage than you need and spending lots of extra time editing it.
