3. Pre-Production Pre-Production is everything that takes place before you go into a studio, or on location to shoot a project. EVERYTHING, is pre-conceived. There is no such thing as “winging it” on set.

9. Quarterly Assessment For our quarterly assessment, we will work in groups to complete a short video based around a pre-determined scenario, and required shot types. Pre-production planning Well constructed shot composition Rule of thirds Continuity Tight edits

10. Pre-Production So we have our concept. How do we put it in motion? A student is sitting in their classroom and gets called by the principal over the loudspeaker to meet him at the front desk. The student nervously gets a pass from the teacher and leaves. Along the way, the student must have a conversation with a friend, stop at the water fountain, and go down a flight of stairs. When they get to front desk, their nervousness goes away and lunch is waiting for them.
