Analysis Of Producing A Six Supplied Line 180 Second Drama Short Film

Throughout a production, an assistant stage manager can perform a number of roles, as they are frequently viewed as a go-to person for jobs. Therefore, there

My classmates and I filmed a music video 6 months ago, and I've learnt various things ever since then. Honestly, I severely dislike each and every part of our music video, but practice makes perfect. We did not assign roles for this music video since we thought we could include every individual to experiment with diverse tasks. At first, everything was going smoothly, right till we chose to change the entire idea completely and assign roles. The music video was filmed and edited within a short timeframe due to the deadline. This taught me to think about several ideas in details from the earliest starting point, so once it comes to filming or editing, I wouldn't stress over the constrained time period given.

As the show came together, the core “crew” was established; it was to be the stage manager, her assistant, the director, the actresses, and myself. As more elements were added, the distribution of the jobs became clear; the stage manager was to record and check out blocking, the assistant stage manager was to keep an eye on props and reset them whenever necessary, and I was to watch for lines. This placed me in a position wherein I would have to tell the actresses, at least thirty years my senior and two astoundingly talented figures, what to do and how to phrase certain lines. Not only was this prospect daunting, but it was terrifying; I entered this project assuming I would be told what to do, but what they needed of me was to tell others what to do. The community of theatre, I realized then (and still hold with me now), did not rely on the heavy power structures that the rest of the world seems to care about so deeply; there is give and take. The director tells the stage manager what to do, yet sometimes the situation is switched. The actresses take instruction from the director, but the director will listen to them for thoughts on where the scene should go. Therefore, despite my small position as a standby assistant for whoever needs it, it was expected of me to correct the actresses and give them cues when necessary (no matter how uncomfortable I felt with it). I was nervous at the thought and yet this

As a child and even currently, I love watching television shows and movies. Horror and post-apocalyptic shows, such as “This is the End”, were the ones that inspired me the most to become a director. In this essay, I will discuss what a director is, some examples of impressive directing work, and why I want to pursue a career as a director.

This is an account of the process we went through the three minutes’ short drama. This self-reflective essay will be divided into three parts, which are pre-production, production, and post-production. I will emphasis on my individual role as a sound director, and outline the learning outcomes of both conceptual skills and practical production skills. Meanwhile, I will examine the problems I encountered and how I solved them throughout each stage and illustrate how would I improve it in a future production.

Use a range of auteur theories to examine the work of two significant directors you have studied on this module. One director should have produced the majority of their work prior to 1960 and the other should have produced it from the 1970s onwards.

Roles: Our individual roles were not very clear from the beginning and because of that we ended up not filming until the days before the draft was due. One of the group members insisted on using Facebook as the means of communication between our group. I tried to get the group to meet up a couple to times in person to sort out what we were going to be doing, but they were not on Facebook and we did not exchange numbers so it was hard to get hold of people. When we did meet up only half of the group members ever attended which made it complicated because not everyone wasn’t there to hear what was said. Even when we were there we got nothing written down as they kept saying we cannot do anything until we hear what Gareth has to say about the Transitions. I felt our roles just become complicated

In the program we were split into groups with the task of writing, filming, editing, and producing a short film based on a topic of our choosing. My team members and I chose topics that

We planned our production time around both productions this semesters, due to three of our four members working in at least one of them and we planned our time around a week in advance so we could be sure it would fit into everyone’s calendars. One of my greatest strengths on the team was finding sound effects that we could use and helping to direct the actors. My greatest weakness was helping with writing music. Jacob Gust was amazing at mixing and writing music,one weakness was having confidence in his music skills. Charles Southward was amazing at directing our actors in what we were going for in performance, one weakness was having faith in his choices for sound effects. Jamie Bennett was great at helping with sound effects and keeping

9) Discuss the nature of power/relationships within the film, between director/ film maker and actions- why were they chosen?

Our group has expressed a shared interest in the preproduction process involved in the animation industry. The primary focus of the research project is to compile information on the pre-production pipeline in both television and film. The juxtaposition of the workflow in television in relation to film will aid in better understanding the medium one would enjoy working in. Additionally, we would like to know more about the process of pitching a concept for animation and how a story eventually comes to be a finished production. Through the division of labor, we hope to effectively cover topics ranging from the concept pitch, scriptwriting, the visual development of characters and environments and finally conclude with the storyboarding process.

I was wrong. Next started the texts and phone calls about what each role entailed and when rehearsals would start. Clearly the actors didn’t read the entire call sheet which was a little frustrating but I appreciated their excitement. I myself was very enthusiastic to begin for I had co-directed before and directing was something I was and still am really passionate about. Many people may think that directing is a fairly uncomplicated job, just show up and boss people around. However, as an 18 year old high school student who was in charge of 30 other students, getting everyone to cooperate proved to be more difficult than I had first expected. I butted heads with a few actors and tech personnel on multiple occasion, causing a handful of people to quit. This started to discourage me and I had multiple panic attacks from the pressure I was under to create a harmonious environment. However, I was able to persevere through these bumps and moved the cast around yet again in order to fill the holes. I also had to several people asking me questions and making suggestive comments to me at any given moment of the rehearsals. Trying to process all the information they were giving me was enough to make my head spin. I also had to supervise not only what was going on onstage, but what was happening behind the scenes which meant that I was in charge of delegating jobs to the adult-teacher collaborators that were helping with costumes and set building. This was quite a strange experience for me because I had never held somewhat of authority over adults, let alone teachers,

Future Film Producers. This study would give them knowledge and understanding on how to be creative and critical in producing independent films. This will provide them insights on ethical standards, limitations and violations when it comes to the following issues being discussed in relation to the themes of movies produced.
