Pre-Production • Phase 1: Conception and prep-work
Quick Thought • Think of a time in your life where you needed a game plan, playbook, or strategy to accomplish a goal.
Pre-Production • Pre-Production is everything that takes place before you go into a studio, or on location to shoot a project. • EVERYTHING, is pre-conceived. There is no such thing as “winging it” on set.
Pre-Production • Originating concept • Writing script • Storyboards • Hiring staff - Director, cinematographer, gaffer, grips, PA’s, even actresses and actors. • Scouting locations • Building sets • Costumes, props, makeup
Storyboards • A series of illustrations or images displayed in sequence for the purpose of pre-visualizing movies, animations, commercials, or any other type of interactive media. • The script is finished and the storyboards help the director place the camera.
Storyboards • Walt Disney is credited with the conception of Storyboards
Quarterly Assessment • For our quarterly assessment, we will work in groups to complete a short video based around a pre-determined scenario, and required shot types. • Pre-production planning • Well constructed shot composition • Rule of thirds • Continuity • Tight edits
Pre-Production • So we have our concept. How do we put it in motion? A student is sitting in their classroom and gets called by the principal over the loudspeaker to meet him at the front desk. The student nervously gets a pass from the teacher and leaves. Along the way, the student must have a conversation with a friend, stop at the water fountain, and go down a flight of stairs. When they get to front desk, their nervousness goes away and lunch is waiting for them.
Getting Started • Storyboard shots as a group • Casting (assign actors/actresses) • Choose a director • Production Meeting w/ Mr. Leonard
Groups • Will turn in • 1 set of storyboards • 1 final product • 4 Project Assessment Worksheets
