Pre-Production - Digital Storyboard 1

Section 1 of our storyboard:      Initially, we wanted to make the movie about a kidnapping. However, during class, while we were brainstorming ideas for our script, we came to the conclusion that that was not the best idea. Instead, we decide to make our movie about a school shooting since that is one of the most relevant issues going on around the world today. For this assignment we had to define all of the shots and their sizes, and we had to describe the types of sounds, such as sound effects that we would be using in the film.

Research - What is Production?

     Production is  where the principal filming for the movie or TV show takes place . During rehearsals and camera blocking, Stand-Ins work with the Director, Assistant Director, camera crew, and other crew members to block out actor movements and lighting set-ups for a scene.  The preproduction phase in filmmaking  allows you to organize everything you need before you start rolling the cameras . Preproduction is when you figure out what you need to make your film, how much it's going to cost, and who you can hire to help  you. Actors perform on camera, camera crews capture the action, lighting crews illuminate the set, sound crews capture audio, and creative designers oversee costumes, makeup, props, and scenery . The director oversees the entire operation.
