Filmmaking Courses- Find A Career In The Film Industry

by Aisfm Edu International Filmmaking Schools
Filmmaking courses are plenty to be found. A long process of creativity where the team works as one and has the required to make a brilliant movie. The process can be divided into essentially 3 steps: planning, filming, and delivery. 

  1. Planning is where the ideation, narration, thinking, and planning take place. Choice of location, storyboards, brainstorming, and a lot of other creativity is put in.  
  2. Filming is the second stage where you bring all your actors on board, recruit the right cast and crew, create schedules and start filming. 
  3. Delivery is the stage before the movie is distributed to various movie theatres to be played. But before that happens it is joined and edited to make the final copy. 

All these stages are long and require a lot of time, efforts, and a lot of permissions to shoot at certain locations. It is not easy to make a film and yet today we see so many movies coming out every week. 

In this article, we are going to be focusing on two aspects that go into making a film. The first one being, sound design. If you have paid attention to movies of the different genres then you know that every movie has a different background score. Getting these background scores right is extremely important if you want your audience to feel. Music triggers emotional connections, the right songs with the perfect background, great actors, and good locations all these factors make a difference in the way the audience perceives a scene. In a horror movie, for instance, you cannot use a soundtrack. To raise the necessary emotions the sound effects need to be good. The creaking of the door, the loud thud, a howl, or a scream, all these sounds should be authentic. AISFM offers its students post-graduate courses in sound design. Here students learn how to record sound on location, how to mix it in post-production to enhance the film's overall viewing experience. 

The second aspect will focus on film production. This process has seven steps: 

  1. Development: this step is with the storyboards, the narration, a brief of the story and development of a script. 
  2. Pre-production: during this step is when the cast and crew are decided. This stage is before the camera rolls, the producer hires people to decide the budget and schedule the shoots. 
  3. Production: the camera starts rolling and the shoot has begun. The main job over here is to keep up to date with the daily schedules and communication needs to be good in between all the departments to avoid clashes and confusion. 
  4. Principal Shoot: a major chunk of the film is shot during this stage. Salaries and prop budgets are spent on during this stage making it the most expensive stage during shoots. The more delay in shooting the more the budget increases, to avoid this there should be communication between all the departments. 
  5. Wrap: the end of the shoot. Sets are broken, props are returned to their respective suppliers. 
  6. Post-Production: the second last step where the movie is edited and all the necessary sound effects or other effects are added. 
  7. Delivery/Distribution: the final stage where the movie is sent to various theatres and other platforms like Amazon, Netflix, Hotstar, and more. 

Finally, to learn all the technicality and skills that go into this process you can go to AISFM that offers a Master's degree program in Film Production. This program will teach you all the nitty-gritty details involved and will prepare you for success. Students will learn the basic aspects of commercial and business budgeting, post-production processes, distribution, marketing and exhibition across traditional film and new media platforms.
