Production:
Film production is a lengthy,
multi-step process of making
movies that can sometimes take
years to complete. Film
productions go through five main
phases. The first step of film
production is the development
stage, where all the initial details
of the movie are figured out
before entering pre-production,
which focuses on research,

The 7 stages of film making
1. development
2. pre-production
3. production
4. photography,
5. wrap
6. post-production
7. distribution
1. DEVELOPMENT
• This stage mainly consists of planning and
conceptualizing a script, based off a book,
another movie, a true story, or can even be an
original concept. After approval, the director
works with the writers to produce a step-by-
step outline of the progression of the film.
2. PRE-PRODUCTION
• In this phase, the key objective is to narrow down
options and plan the development of the movie in
terms of film cast, film crew, and budget. A line
manager or production manager is usually hired
during this process to create a schedule and
manage the budget for the film. Pre-production
also includes figuring out the shoot location.
3. PRODUCTION
• The production stage is when the actual
practical film production work begins. The
primary aim is to stick to the budget and
schedule, which requires constant
attentiveness. The film director works with the
cast and crew to ensure that everything goes
as planned. Communication is key between all
the involved parties.
4. PHOTOGRAPHY
• Photography is essentially the most expensive phase in
film production. This is because of the salaries owed to
the actor, director and set crew, as well as the costs of
certain shots, props and special effects, if needed. All the
previous stages have been set to ensure the smooth
transition of photography. This is where the camera
rolls, so it is important for the film director to follow the
schedule and remain within the budget.
5. WRAP
• The period immediately after the shooting
ends, when all the cameras are turned off.
During this stage, everything gets
disassembled, and the set is cleared of the cast
and crew. All equipment and props must be
returned in a functioning order, to the
suppliers and there must be an inventory list.
6. POST-
PRODUCTION
• In most cases, this stage will overlap the stage
of photography but not always. A rough cut of
the film is drafted, and the film director will
begin reviewing and editing the footage as he
coordinates additions which may be required
from visual effects, music and sound design.
7. DISTRIBUTION
• Distribution is the final stage of the production process.
The film must be distributed for the producers to make
their money back. It is the work of these producers to
strike a lucrative deal for distribution amongst the
cinemas and other platforms such as Amazon Prime,
Netflix, HBO etc. It is also important to secure the
correct deals because they will determine the film’s
reach and rake in the right amount of money to ensure
the return on investment.
An independent film, independent movie, indie film, or indie
movie is a feature film or short film that is produced outside the 
major film studio system, in addition to being produced and
distributed by independent entertainment companies (or, in some
cases, distributed by major companies). Independent films are
sometimes distinguishable by their content and style and the way in
which the filmmakers' personal artistic vision is realized. Usually,
but not always, independent films are made with considerably
