Pre-production process

The pre-production process was very important to our group because it meant there was less time wasted on the shooting day. Storyboarding our ideas was very useful because it gave a clear idea of the sequence of shots and whether they would work. Lots of our ideas were then eliminated during this process which benefited our sequence because we could improve from our original ideas in each storyboard. Our costume and props list could have been more organised; due to our idea changing we ended up getting more costumes than we actually needed which were of no use on the day. The pre-production process taught me that in film making planning the shots is a very long process but necessary in order to save time on shooting days and to know exactly what you want the sequence to look like.
