Film Idea #2

Film Idea 

This pre-production documentation is evidence of one of my film ideas that I have completed roughly on paper, including important things when creating a film such as the plot synopsis, film genre, location, genre conventions, characters, target audience and if the film is going to be a short film or a full length film. I completed it on paper as it is a really easy way of writing down all my thoughts and ideas quickly in one place whilst brainstorming them, it also means that I can cross out ideas if I change my mind or get a better idea for a film. This happens before creating a film treatment because you can easily change things about your film idea and the story line at this point and also you can create multiple ideas and then choose the best one.This documentation has a massive impact on my final production as it is what I base the entire script, cast, storyboard and genre conventions on. Also, a initial film idea starts the whole pre-production process because if you have the right resources and enough budget you can start to create your film. It is an important part of the pre-production process as it gives me a stable layout of what will happen in my film and what it will look like. This documentation isn't very professional or at industry standard, but most film producers will write their first thoughts of a film or documentary on paper before creating a film treatment, script or storyboard, so it is important.

Action Plan

Action Plan This Excel document shows evidence of my final action plan. An action plan is a plan that includes all of the tasks that a film producer has to complete during the pre-production process to be able to successfully produce a film, it also should include how long each task would usually take to complete. Most of the time film producers, include a target date on when the want to start each task because that will help them stay organised and productive. Some film producers also make note on if a task relies on another task to be completed, this way they know they cannot start a certain task if they have not completed the other. An action plan is essential for every film producer because it displays the plan for their whole pre-production and organises the entire process in a way that is easy to understand and read. It also helps a film producer stay on track and on schedule which is essential because If a film producer falls behind schedule or forgets to complete a task the...

Production Log

Production Log This document shows evidence that I have completed a production log. This log is similar to a diary in by how I write in at different stages of my coursework.  I have completed a production log because it is a easy and simple way to keep track on my progress so far.  It is especially useful to monitor my progress. This is because I can read my production log at any stage in my coursework and make sure that I am staying productive with my time and not falling behind schedule. I can also use my production log as an evaluation of how successfully iv'e organised my time, if I have stayed productive, whether I understood the coursework and what I have done in the past that has been successful or unsuccessful. I have completed my production log in a Word document because it is an easy way to write a lot of text, I also have divided the text and grouped it into dates - to see what I have completed and when. Some film makers may also keep a log on their progres...

World War Z Case Study

World War Z Case Study This case study shows the entire pre production process when making a film, the pre-production process is very important whilst making a film and failure to plan a film successfully can delay the release of a film hugely and could waste a lot of money and resources. I have researched this high budget film 'World War Z' to understand the different methods of producing a film and the pre production process compared to other types of film production, I did this because there are many ways and methods to producing a film so it is important for each film producer to find the right method for them to make the whole process much more productive and easier for them. I have presented this within a PowerPoint to categorize and organise the different elements of post production onto a different slide and go into detail on each, making it easier for me to understand the process. My different elements that I categorized were context, plot summary, financing,...
