Production
Introduction | video | sound | lighting

When you've finished planning everything out, it's time to start production. This is where things become exciting! Film production is both exhilarating and stressful at the same time. You have people trying to light the shot, the actors making sure they say their lines right, while the camera man making sure he charged the battery and can frame the shot. The director is running around worrying about if he is guiding his actors correctly; the sound guy worry about making sure the sound is picked up without clipping and that no external sounds are heard. Maybe you have a person for each job, maybe you take on all the jobs, or maybe it is somewhere in between. What ever is the case, there are a lot of things all happening at once.

There are many opportunities to fail. But, when it comes together, it almost feels like something magical is happening; it feels special. It is a moment you shared with a few select people that you will never forget.
