Video Production - Pre-Production Element
Updated: Sep 6, 2018
What is Pre-Production?
Before you start shooting, you start with an idea and with this idea you create a skeleton. We share one aspect of the pre-production skeleton contains all the elements that go into the pre-production of the project. We create a pre-production bible for each project.
Brain
The brain of a project is the concept of what we are trying to achieve. You also think about who you're creating this video for. Before you start shooting you need a clear idea, videos start through the written word. They are concepts that are formed before you hit record,
Eyes
The visual aspect of the shoot, this gets described in the pre-production document. You show the vision of the project through storyboards, mood boards including the shot list.
Backbone
Behind every project you have to have a backbone to it, this is where you discuss the scheduling, script, location brake down and so forth.
Conclusion
The pre-production aspect of a shoot includes all the preparation that goes into the video before we start shooting. This is a bible for the whole shoot containing each aspect and element for the shoot. When we plan better, we shoot better.
