I was bored the other day so i just Google’d for filmmaking to learn the process of it. I found this article on Wikipedia that is pretty interesting: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_production
Basically Filmmaking has 5 stages:
- Development – Screenwritor, Director
- Pre-Production – Director
- Production – AD, Actor, Cameraman, Director
- Post-Production – Editor, Director
- Release – EVERYONE!
Development
Mainly writing the screenplay. Usually done by the scriptwriter, and the time it takes varies from hours to months. When a screenplay is done, the director will check and make neccessary arrangements. After this is done, we move onto Pre-Production.
Pre-Production
Find a crew (usually by the director) that includes: Editor, Cameramen, Actors, AD (or assistant directors) to handle props, filming time, etc. When done, move to Production. Of course, changes can be make to the crew (hire one more actor, etc.) any time during the production and post-production.
Production
AD will prepare the neccesary props before the day of filming, and gather everyone, including directors, cameramen, actors, etc. that are involve in the filming on the next day. This happens to every single scenes that are to be filmed. Post-production will then happen either during production (with finished scenes) or after.
Post-Production
The editor then take what is already done in to the computer and edits, or, put the clips into a correct order and cut out the unneccessary parts. After that, they will apply special effects on the edited film, such as blur, speed up, etc. At last, they will put background musics into the video (if neccessary) and make sure that the musics fits the video.
The director will then check on the finished work from the editor and make neccessary changes. If this is all done, it is time to release the film!
Release
Show the finished film on YouTube, School Assembly, etc. This will be the end of the project.

I hope everyone can have better understanding toward filmmaking. Happy filming =)

lol, i’m clear about those =D
now everyone knows how cool film making is?
Hey director, I think the background music should be chosen during or before editting, since we obviously can’t afford to get a company to MAKE us one, we ought to get something other’s has done, so the director should look over the sounds first, then when you’re writing the script/editting it, you can have a somewhat familiarity when editting. This way, you won’t encounter problems such as having a 40 sec. clip but only 30 sec. sound. This way, the film will be 20 meters closer to PERFEKTION.
Oh, by the way, the OFFICIAL font for a screenplay (don’t know about scripts), is “Courier” and I don’t think Office 2007 has that, but “Courier New” which is definately in 2007 will also do the job.
I just found this AWESOME screenwriting software, that has basically everything you need for screenplay, and it has like a storyboard, catalog, production schedule, etc. etc. It is just SO awesome.
I’ll post it later.
I think Courier = Courier New…
For BGM, I think it is fine if we choose it after. Or perhaps, we can prepare a variety of musics first, no need to choose the exact one.
isn’t this common sense….?
what’s a common sense, you not knowing what we’re talking about? jk jk
Good luck getting people behind this one. Though you make some VERY fascinating points, youre going to have to do more than bring up a few things that may be different than what weve already heard. What are trying to say here? What do you want us to think? It seems like you cant really get behind a unique thought. Anyway, thats just my opinion.

Hey – nice blog, just looking around some blogs, seems a pretty nice platform you are using. I’m currently using Wordpress for a few of my sites but looking to change one of them over to a platform similar to yours as a trial run. Anything in particular you would recommend about it?
Great Info! But I’m having some trouble trying to load your blog. I have read it many times before and never gotten something like this, but now when I try to load something it just takes a little while (5-10 minutes ) and then just stops. I hope i don’t have spyware or something. Does anyone know what the problem could be?
Excellent post, I just passed this onto a colleague who was doing a little homework on that. And he in fact bought me beer because I found it for him ~ Augustine Coffland
I just stumbled on your blog when I was lookng on google. I have to say that the information here was the most complete that I found anywhere. I am definitely bookmarking this to come back and read later.
Great Blog I love the lay out and the color scheme is it possible to get a copy of your theme?
Hey guys, long story short. 3 weeks ago i saw a comment just like this one promoting a item known as Mobile Monopoly. I decided to visit the site and check the item out, i was amazed with it and signed up right away. So far i have made $2,512 in 3 weeks. I suggest you all check their website out, what have you got to lose? I GUARANTEE you’ll sign up with them after you watch their video… The technique is just incredible for earning money online and also the potential money you could make from it’s near infinite. Well worth considering… Mobile Monopoly
