Producing

We had already learnt who the main man in a production was and how important the producer is. In this workshop however, we looked deeper into the producing side of the production and the roles of the producer.

Unlike most of the crew, the producer is active throughout the whole production cycle. Literally from beginning to end, starting with, pre-production, through production and finishing with postproduction.

The producer must:

• create a budget for the film
• hire cast and crew
• scheduling
• make sure everyone is on time and doing a good job
• say 'YES' or 'No' to the final product
• legal duties

There are simply too many to list them all on here. But this workshop, I'm sure may have scared some people. All responsibility is on the producer, and responsibility is scary. Eddie done a great job at drilling the producing business into our heads! :D 

Also in this workshop we were given the brief for our 6th and final project.
