Pre-production
initial paragraph
Pre-production is a vital part of making a film. It involves
lead actors, supporting actors and background actors, which are used as extras.
Another important part of this pre-production is the crew like artists,
technicians and craftsman such as a cinematographer to oversee the camera
department along with assistant director to make sure you are staying on
schedule and on budget. To complete the pre-production you also need to
establish the look of the film such as colour scheme, lighting, unique props
and costumes, and where it all takes place. Actors may also need to get a
dialect coach during their rehearsals of the film if their character that they
are playing has an accent, they also might need a stunt coordinator to make
sure every stunt performed by them is safe enough, the owner of the film will
provide both of these roles. A breakdown of the script (screenplay) is also an
important part of pre-production, the director or line producer can do this. Given
out to every cast and crew member is a call sheet, this is a document to
prepare with, it includes weather forecasts, locations of everything, and
telephone numbers of other crew and cast members. Another factor is a financial
list of the costs of actors, props, location, permits, and vehicles. The final
piece to the pre-production is the shooting schedule, this decides what scenes
are shot at what time, with who, and where making sure everything is organised
correctly to utilise the time you have.
