Film Making Seminar

Getting a crew together can be a little tough, but its not as hard as you might think. I’ll show you some tips I have learned in my experience in filming and putting a good crew together.

When shooting a film you must take everything into account. To do this, we separate it all into different departments, which makes it easier to manage. I am going to list some departments here, although yours may be a little different: Production which includes the producer and any assistants, Art which includes the artists, sets, props etc, Make-up, which includes hair, make-up and costumes, Camera which is who is shooting the scene with the camera, Sound and Lighting, which is where your technicians come in, and Crafting, basically making food etc. Yours may have more departments then that, but that is the basic set up.

If you know anyone in the industry that has some type of experience in filming, editing, shooting or anything like that, see if you can acquire their help. If your just starting out you probably wont know anyone like that, but its always a good idea and ask your friends if they do. Maybe they did a little project awhile back you didn’t know about, or before you met them. It never hurts to ask.

Whether you want to break into the film industry or to fulfill a childhood dream, working as a movie extra can be a fun way to spend a day or a week. Film extras are needed as long as the director is filming a scene that needs more people. Getting a film job as an extra depends on one factor in particular – location.
