Seeing as we would eventually be filming our own Thriller extract, we needed an insight into the stages of production that are needed to produce a simple yet effective sequence. To study this, we watched the bonus features of a James Bond DVD in which the stages of production of a car chase scene are filmed in detail. The director, Marc Forster, is also present in this part of the DVD to tell the audience the important factors to consider when making a movie.
These stages of production are as follows...
PRE-PRODUCTION
- Evaluation of health and safety issues that may occur in the shoot
- Initial research of a location
- Casting specific characters to the genre
- Writing a script for the scene
- Storyboarding the shots, time and sound in the scene
- Any research into timing, weather
All of these parts of pre-production must be specific to the chosen genre.
PRODUCTION
- Filming the shoot
- Stunts (if appropriate)
- Dialogue from the script made previously
- Costumes and make up
- Props
- Special effects and CGI (if appropriate)
All of these stages of production again must be done with the genre of the filming kept in mind.
POST-PRODUCTION
- Editing everything that was filmed during production
- Adding music and sound effects to any shots, if appropriate
- Marketing and promoting the film
I must consider all of these stages of production when making my Thriller movie and make sure that all stages are specific to the Thriller genre.
