My Notes on Movie Production

How a Movie Is Made

The usual components to a movie would be

idea > brainstorming mindmapping
pitch idea
storyboarding
scriptwriting
cast
concept art
coding
finding director
location




Film production which is process of making a film is broke up into four key sections

Development
Pre Production
Production
Post Production

Development is the stage in which the producer, a essential part of the film crew who overlooks every part of the filming process, finds a story for the project, from a book, play or just an original idea. an theme is presented for the project and then a synopsis is made, a general view on the overall project, notes on important points. after this, a longer description is made which discusses characters, general plot, stucture mood and other vital points that donate to the planning.
The next important thing is the screenplay which is written by a screenwriter. When screenplay is written, which could take several months, a film distributor is contacted to assess the likelihood of the films success, important factors such as how has films that are similar of the genre had an impact on the market, actors that would star and possible directors.k














Pre production is the stage in which a  storyboard is made, cast is chosen 
A Storyboard could look like this:
It is an important piece in conveying a narrative with shots and sound
