Production Role

Summary

Role

Director

Intention (SMART Goal)

My personal goal and skill to learn as a director is organization and this is an important goal so that we all keep a similar vision during production to make our best film that isn’t all over the place. Using organization we will refine the production of our film and make sure that were are doing nothing but our best work for the time we have. I do not want to settle for mediocre I will only settle for what is the best possible product that we, as a group with our level of skill and expertise can produce, making sure we finish our burn down chart on time with all the things we need to do being completed accordingly. As a director on my team I will keep my entire team focused and present-minded  so that we all can  achieve the same vision and make our film as close to seamless as possible with all work completed before the last day of post production so that we can do final proofs and edits to make sure our film is exactly as we want it to be.

PRE-PRODUCTION – INQUIRY

Leader(s) in the Field / Exemplary Work(s)

1. Steven Spielberg, he has won the Academy Award-winning director, screenwriter, and producer. Showing how good of a director he really was, not only did he win awards for himself but for his screenwriter and producer as well. His greatest work (in my opinion) of many great movies was the film Schindler’s list.

 

Training Source(s)

[0:41]”…there are so many different ways to approach this. Some directors
are very particular about the little details, and they have a clear image and there’s kind of one way of doing things, and the other way is wrong.”
“other people have a lot more flexible kind of mentality where they let the actors improvise and they might be more collaborative when it comes to the set designs, the costumes and the lighting, stuff like that.”
[1:20] “one of the first things that people learn about working with actors.”
“saying things like ‘oh can you raise the intonation on the last syllable of that second word’ or having them to do very specific body language movements at specific times – that stuff isn’t actually that useful usually, it’s often better to talk to people about how the characters are thinking, what the characters might be feeling, have it on more on a discussion basis, and talk about the bigger ideas rather than going in on those micro little details.”
[2:06] “Sometimes people have suggestions that are completely different from our original plan.
But then as you think it over you realise that actually that achieves what we were trying to achieve with the scene, better than my original plan. So you take the best idea, wherever it comes from.”

Project Timeline

  1. we will use Trello to organize our production and stay up to speed.
  2. I will begin to make tasks for each production team member and assure that they stay on their job.
  3. I will now start storyboarding with the screenwriter and cinematographer, identifying our points of tension in our film.
  4. After storyboarding, I will identify important and key shots on our shot list with our cinematographer.
  5. I will ascertain that every team member is clear on their understanding of their role and their tasks.
  6. I will now choose a specific setting, and a time when we can all get together.
  7. Once pre-production is completed I will work with the editor to get the visual experience and pacing of the film that is desired.
  8. Then I will make sure that the film is uploaded and delivered to Leduc.
  9. After that I will create the presentation slide show and share it with everyone to edit their own evidence and reasoning into.
