PRODUCTION PROCESS PERSONNEL

THREE PRODUCTION PROCESS • Preproduction- the things that happen before the production of a film project and things like that ( director, cinematographer, financiers, and other stakeholders) • Production-the actual making of the product or the film (the actors, directors, tech crew) • Post production- the basic aftermath of the film and selling the final product to the one who it was created for( the editors, directors, publicist, the client, focus group

ROLE MEANING • The preproduction role means the beginning stages of producing process like getting everything together and finalizing up the writing and getting the actors and directors together • The production process is wrapping everything together and finally starting to create the product and get all the ideas into one area to make the vision a depictable image • The post production process is the art of wrapping all things up and getting the product ready to ship off to the focus group and preparing it for the judgement or consumption of the world

ROLES ENTAIL • All the roles entail a spark of creative genius and they should all be completed with a lot of detail attention in order to create the best final product for the client. They all fit into the entire process because without each individual part the product would be lesser as a whole. For instance without the writers in the preproduction process the production process would not go no where near as smooth or even happen. Therefore they all depend on each other dearly in order to be successful. This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY

CAN THESE ROLES BE DONE WITHOUT • None of the roles can be done without because they are structured so soundly that one without the other would basically lend the demise of the entire system that was built. No matter how big or how small the process is they are all very necessary and relevant to have.

ABOVE THE LINE AND BELOW THE LINE PERSONNEL • “Above the line” and “Below the line” personnel is a budgeting term that is used to separate the production crew into categories of profit.

ABOVE THE LINE PERSONNEL • Above the line personnel are those who will generally share in any profits that the project generates. These are normally those who are artistically involved in the project. • Examples include: • Producer • Directors • Actors • Writers • Designers

BELOW THE LINE PERSONNEL • Below the line personnel refer to those who are paid regular wage and will not share in the profits • Examples • Camera Operators • Editors • Engineers • Costume Designers • Production Designers • Makeup Artists
