During this project we have followed the production process of a short film with precision.
First of all we started with started with the concept. We had various discussions about what type of film would meet the brief (in duration and genre) and in general a concept that we would all enjoy.
We pitched various ideas to each other and discussed them in meetings and via email.
After we decided on our idea we created the pre-production documentation. We went already had an idea for the location since it came up in discussion during the concept. We decided on a pool bar to fit the story and was close enough that we could all travel to the location without struggle.
We sat as a group and went through scripting and storyboarding.
After producing this documentation we secured our equipment and set a date and time.
On location we set up equipment storyboards, scripts and gathered the necessary actors. We discussed the order of filming (chronological is the most logical) and started filming. At some points during production we acquired further footage incase we thought we might need other shots when editing. An example of this was a focus on the main light that lit the pool table.
After we finished filming we took our footage back to the computer and sorted our footage into usable footage and then further into folders from 1-15 of the different scenes needed to speed up editing.
Whilst editing the first rendition we created and logged rushes as well as an edit decision list. Once the footage was in place we exported this as an offline edit.
We then sat and edited the film as a team putting the necessary music tracks and re-recorded audio in the correct places as well as applying visual effects when needed.
After we decided our film was complete. We exported the film and showed it to a focus group to gain feedback.
Due to the above process we believe that we have accurately followed the production process accurately.
