1. Pre Production Advice

2. The procedure of filming is a long one and incorporates
far more planning and preparation than one may think.
From past experience if this is not organised effectively,
a lot may go wrong. In a team there are a lot of ideas
and opinions flying about and if these are not well
thought through, planned and communicated, the end
result will not be successful. When exploring tips on how
to make this pre-production process smoother and more
efficient for future projects, I found the pre-production
checklist put together by LAMBDA films. Which outlines
three fundamental strategies to ease a process that can
otherwise be fairly stressful. These included, scripting,
storyboarding, and a treatment

3. making the final aims of the project clear to everyone
involved.

4. 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.

5. Looking back at when I started studying the film and
production side of things. I did not realise the benefits of
storyboarding until it was far to late - on the day of
filming when things became very intense and stressful
with the deadline fast approaching. Without a planned
storyboard it got more and more unorganised and
unenjoyable. I have however, learnt from past mistakes
and ever since have made sure that a well thought
through storyboard always features in the pre-production
process. Making sure that it continues to
develop and progress all the way through the entire
planning phase to make sure that we are all pleased
with the final result.

6. 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.

7. 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.
