Pre-production is an essential stage of any film project. It includes all the brainstorming and planning that happens before cameras start rolling. From developing a concept, exploring the look of your film, storyboarding scenes and much more.
One of the most important things you need in order to start on a film, is an outline. Without an outline, you won't have direction. Me and my team used word document but later switched to studio-binder to create our script and to be honest, we had little to no prior knowledge on script writing. We had to refresh our mind on terms we were taught and search up scripts online for reference. For example, before writing the script, I had no idea what EXT. and INT. represented. I also didn’t know how scripts were supposed to be laid out, like where dialogue went or where new locations went.
For the most part, the script followed the same outline as we originally planned except the Spain flashbacks were cut out.
In general, this task was a learning experience. Finalizing our script meant we were now a hundred percent ready to start filming!
