The document discusses several aspects of film pre-production including a proposal/treatment, screenplay, storyboard, production schedule, location recce, and production budget. The production schedule involves breaking down the script scene-by-scene to determine resource needs like actors, equipment, and locations. A production board is then compiled from this breakdown to form the basis of a shooting schedule.
