2. Pre-production is the phase of fine-tuning ideas and
planning prior to the process of production. In a live-action
movie sense it is the period before filming starts.
In an animation sense it is the period before any real
animating takes place. Pre production is a major step
when creating corporate videos too - it's no less
important!
3. Don't get me wrong, I know the general location of what
I'm looking for, I know my keys are in the house, or in
the Norwich area... somewhere. I just don't have the
organisational skill or the magic wand to pin-point
where exactly.
4. When I'm editing I often find I have the same problem.
In one project I'll have an extensive list of of unnamed
sequences, audio tracks and a bucket-load of footage to
contend with. Finding one short clip will become a ten
minute long treasure hunt that only adds to the stresses
of video production. What is easily forgotten is that
there are very basic techniques that can be used to
speed up the production process monumentally.
5. This process begins before you've even begun filming, I
mean if you're begin editing a film that had no strategic
or methodical terms of planning, then you're going to
get nowhere when it comes to compiling the footage. I
recently came across this LAMBDA Films video that
details some simple ways of developing an idea of what
you want your video to look like before you've even
started shooting it. I've included a link to the video
below.
6. Pre-production is important for the arrangement of
what is going to be shot and includes many phases that
cannot to overlooked (as I learnt). It effects the whole
filming process and tends to make your life easier in the
long run, with efficiency and ease when it comes to
filming.
