A
vision of a circumstance, based on which a film can be produced
(created, made, realized). The importance of the vision is
emphasized since film production is a very technical process.
Film
production can be roughly divided into three phases:
- Pre-production
- Shooting, or the actual production
- Post-production
A
clear vision helps the production crew tell the viewer the
story of the film without getting lost in the numerous technical
details involved in the production.
First,
before pre-production, there has to be an idea, starting point
or vision. The author (scriptwriter
or director) should
conceptualize his vision as early as possible and shape it
into a sentence or sentences. The conceptualized vision is
turned into a screenplay or a plan for the film. This phase
preceding the production is synthetic: tiny pieces and details
of real life are formed into an entity.
