In this workshop we’ll discuss the importance of pre-production from a practical perspective. What is required of a producer and production team before a single frame is shot? We’ll address best practices and techniques used on contemporary film and television sets as well as discuss common pitfalls incurred by new filmmakers and how to avoid them. These tips and tricks will provide workforce readiness for graduating film students and a great entry point into producing for new film students looking to shoot their first short.
