This document outlines Emma McConologue's film production process from pre-production through post-production and evaluation. It details the various tasks involved in researching genres, writing scripts and storyboards, filming at locations with actors and equipment, editing footage, adding effects, and evaluating the final film. The production took place from November 2016 to March 2017 and involved pre-production planning, filming over multiple days on location, and post-production editing at home with software.
