Any project, including commercials, music videos, short films, and feature films, begins with pre-production. This critical phase determines how effective, structured, and successful the production stage will be. Pre-production is the process of planning and carrying out all of the tasks that must be completed prior to the start of production. The director, cinematographer, producers, first assistant director, production managers, production coordinators, and site scouts are normally involved once the screenplay has been completed.
Each project is unique, based on the budget and scope of the production, but there are some general criteria to keep in mind.
STEPS FOR PREPRODUCTION

The sequences are depicted on a storyboard and shot list.
