Answer 2

Answer:

ilm production is a demanding, time-consuming and multi-faceted process. To succeed in producing

your own films, you must show creativity, organisation, diligence, confidence, and be able to take care of

equipment, think ahead and work well with others. This is a challenging but also very rewarding process

if you are well organised. This guide has been written to help you to carefully consider each stage of the

process in a way that will ensure that your productions can run as smoothly as possible.

CCEA is aware of the time restrictions faced by many of you who are also studying for other qualifications

alongside Moving Image Arts, as well as issues of access that you may face as you will mainly be under the

age of eighteen when undertaking the course. This guide offers ideas, advice and shortcuts to help you to

make the most of what you have.

We are assuming that you will approach the development of your portfolios with a degree of commitment

and enthusiasm. There is an emphasis throughout this guide on careful planning, clear communication,

personal responsibility and other legal/organisational considerations that are the hallmarks of

professionalism in a successful film-maker. You are encouraged to think of yourself as a ‘proper’ film-maker,

and to take the production process seriously. This guide lays out in detail the many roles and skills a film

production demands and outlines how you can negotiate these.

Changes in filming and editing-related technology occur frequently and Moving Image Arts technical guides

and workflow documents are updated to reflect this. Please check for updates regarding technical advice

given here. For the most part, however, the material included in this guide is not time sensitive and should

offer you tried-and-tested techniques and processes that will equip you to effectively tackle the challenges

of your own film production.

Please Note: CCEA makes every effort to ensure guidance is accurate, up-to-date and relevant. Due to the

fast-changing nature of the technologies they cover, guidance documents such as this will be updated to

reflect any substantial software or technical updates when necessary and the updated versions uploaded to

the subject microsite. This edition dates from Autumn 2016.
