3 AREAS OF PRODUCTION

Film production is split into 3 different areas which I will briefly explain now...

AREA 1: PRE-PRODUCTION

This consists of certain preparations such as planning the film itself, writing out all scripts what are going to be used and researching what locations will work best and finding out where you will film.

AREA 2: PRODUCTION

This is strictly filming. A lot of hard work and imagination is in this.

AREA 3: POST PRODUCTION

This consists of editing, sound and the credits etc.

After these 3 main stages are done the film will then get distributed through various companies such as the big american conglomerates like 'Warner Bros' or the smaller british companies. If this is successful then the film will get put into Exhibition. For the bigger budget films they will already automatically get put through to the cinemas such as Showcase and UGI etc as these are connected to the film companies themselves. But with the smaller films, they will have to be put on at smaller cinemas such as 'Broadway' which focuses on smaller budget films and British and foreign films.An example of a conglomerate would be 'Warner brothers'.

A cinema what would show films from this company would be Showcase Cinemas or Cineworld.
