PTK - Studio shoot - What a producer does - Pre production

The pre production process is about making sure you have everything ready to shoot

there a 3 main things you can have when it comes to making a film

it can be good, fast or cheep

personally i would rather have something good and cheep, as i feel a lot of the errors of a film are made during pre production so it better to spend the time to work all that out than make a bad film.

here is how  pre production process for a producer would go in order of events



  • get demo reels from heads of departments 
  • make shot list/story boards 
  • find locations 
  • do script revisions 
  • create a production book 
  • start casting actor 
  • hire department heads 
  • lock locations and scripts 
  • get insurance 
  • have DOP give you lighting camera and grip requirements
  • get props 
  • production design gets to work on orginising set build 
  • lock down an actor and crew 
  • first draft of the hand book done 
  • hire equiptment 
  • create a scedual 
  • sort out costume 
  • get permits
  • hire transport 
  • do a pre vis 
  • buy food
