We also watched this little video on YouTube called "signs"
To make this small film / video they would of had to do most of the things below;
- A script would need to be written
- A storyboard would have to be drawn so the camera man would know what kind of shot to frame
- The location would have to be scouted, making sure its suitable for the film and also safe. You would also need permission to shoot on the location they had chosen.
- Plan ahead for weather, the film we watched was shot in the rain so they would have had to check the weather reports if rain was what they had planned.
- Acquire the right equipment for the job.
- Design and make costumes/props
- Actors would have to be casted in each role by a casting director
- VERY IMPORTANT = Budget.
- Instead of a story board there may be a shot list.
- Actor release forms
