There’s actually more than three stages in the process of filmmaking. But nobody likes talking about the last stage. It’s the boring business-side that makes most artists want to slink away to a dark hole and stay there. But it’s necessary.
The Idea
No film can survive without a good idea at its core. Some writers and filmmakers would argue that you need more than just a good idea: you need a hook! The basis for any film idea or hook is this: Subject + Deep Desire + Obstacle(s) Another way of looking at this is by asking the simple question: Who is this about and what do they want extremely badly? A film doesn’t work if you don’t have an interesting and sympathetic subject with a deep desire who’s got obstacles in their way. You can go a...
Documentary v.s. Narrative
So what kind of movie do you want to make? There are two main choices: documentaries or narratives. A documentary is supposed to be an expression of “real” life. But even in a doc, you can do a lot of directing, and it isn’t necessarily just a matter of standing back and filming whatever happens in front of you. Sure, you can do that. But you can also direct the action, set up scenes, and hold staged interviews. You can put yourself in the documentary as many well-known directors do. Honestly...
The Script
This is only strictly necessary if you’re doing a scripted narrative or animated film. Most animated films have their scripts locked down long before production starts. That’s because it’s insanely expensive, so there’s no such thing as multiple re-shoots if you’re creating a CGI epic. But with narrative filmmaking you might be doing re-writes on your script all the way up to and including the days of the shoots. You might also be doing an improvised movie, which requires only a storyline and...
Shot Sequences
Each shot in a film must build on the one that came before it. The goal of your film or video shoot is to get enough footage that will work together in the edit to build a story.
Camera & Shot Angles
Here you’ll want to follow the 30 degree rule. To cut your shots together later in the edit suite you’ll want to move the camera so that the field of view is 30 degrees different relative to the previous shot and next shot. You do this each time you re-frame. This allows shots to be cut together seamlessly. If you film your subject straight on in shot, then move the camera so that it’s capturing your subject from the side, that would create more than a 30 degree difference. When cutting these...
This video simply shows you the dutch or canted angle in its full glory including the degree at which the camera has been angled. Amazing!
Choosing the Right Camera
This is where most indie filmmakers start pulling their hair out. It doesn’t have to be such a complex decision, however. If you have no money, use the camera your director of photography has access to or the one they want to rent. If you’re aiming to become a solo filmmaker and you need to buy a camera, then it’s time to start listing out all the ways you want to shoot. There are no perfect cameras that work perfectly for every single type of shoot. You need to know what rigors your work wil...
Going Solo or With a Crew
If you’ve read this far, then clearly you’re legitimately interested in making films. Well, just so you know, you can start small and solo. You don’t have to jump in right away with a crew. You can put together a filmmaking kit with a camera, lens, sound gear, and go make a film solo. This works best for documentary-style micro-filmmaking. But you could pull it off on narrative work if you were doing something hyper minimal. If you’re interested in making narrative short films or narrative fe...
Putting Together a Film Crew
You’ll need a strong cup of coffee and persistence, especially if you’re starting from next to zero and don’t have much money to spend. It helps to set a shoot date before you start seeking out a crew because it’s hard to get a firm yes if you can’t tell people when your shoot is happening. It also might help to have a number that you can pay everyone per shoot day. Even $100/day is a good incentive. But as you might guess, that can add up. A good place to start is checking out local short fi...
Costume Design or Wardrobe Suggestions
Costume design is largely overlooked by amateur productions, but I know you won’t make that mistake. In some cases, you can get away with actors wearing their own wardrobe items. But you have to make sure that it works with the storyline. How many short films have you seen with people wearing ill-fitting suits? Well, I’ve seen quite a few. In real life, you probably shouldn’t judge someone by how they’re dressed. In film life, your audience immediately judges a character by how they’re dresse...
Planning Your Lighting
If you’re making a narrative film, your DP or Cinematographer will plan the lighting. They’ll do this well in advance based on breaking down the script and working with the feeling you’re trying to create and the story you’re aiming to tell. But if you’re working solo, then it’s up to you to plan your lighting. Creating a cinematic lightingplan means you must go to your location at the time of day that you plan on shooting and taking photographs. You’ll analyze the light—how much light is the...
Renting Gear vs Buying Gear
Something you need to know: rentals rule! Some production companies work almost exclusively with rentals. In fact, most production companies rely on rentals for most of the projects. Why is that? Because for every area of gear (camera, lenses, stabilization, lighting, sound recording, monitors) there is a myriad of options designed with specific types of shoots in mind. What you need for a run-and-gun documentary shot in the desert is quite different from what you need on a feature film shoot...
Production is the so-called glamorous part of filmmaking. Really it’s just loads of hard work with a touch of craziness and a lot of fun. It’s the part of moviemaking that everyone tells stories about. And it’s the part you see images of online when someone’s trying to sell you a camera or a course. It’s what everybody thinks of when you say, “I’m ...
Finally, we get to talk about cameras! That’s the part most filmmakers get obsessed with, even though lenses are way more important. But it’s true that if your cinematography is a total mess, it’ll be hard to get an audience for your film. You have three choices when approaching a film: a Cinema Camera, a DSLR, and a Mirrorless Camera. There are so...
