Movie Making
Filmmaking can be one of the most complicated art form today in the way its technical, creative, financial, and social aspects are tightly interwoven. When you understand all of these aspects of creating a movie, you will be better prepared to handle the work involved in completing a film and having it distributed to an audience. The quality of movies can vary, with production ranging from the multi-million dollar Hollywood film with hundreds of crew members to a small high school film involving a few students. Even though movie productions can be different in production quality, they all go through the same processes of preproduction, production, and post-production phases. Preproduction is the phase where the filmmaker plans and prepares his film before filming it. Usually he starts with a treatment, then a completed script. Usually a writer teams up with a producer who organizes a budget for the movie and arranges financing by shopping it around to movie studios, distributors, investors, or even applying for grants.
