First published: 1996
Description: The key to a project's ultimate success is good planning. Pre-Production Planning for Video, Film, and Multimedia shows how to prepare for the myriad steps required to execute production and post-production of a video, film, or multimedia project. The techniques of planning for success are easily adapted to all types of programs, including communications, training, marketing, corporate, news, and teleconferencing. Cartwright explains in detail how to save money and time in production and post-production, yet create a quality program with high production values. The craft of pre-production planning is explained through a comprehensive system from content organization, content development, scripting, visualization proposal development, contracts, budgets and legal issues through equipment crew and talent selection, graphics creation, editing, duplication, and distribution. The production steps are all there, enhanced with graphs of the production process forms and a comprehensive list of production resources. There is also a chapter devoted to the use of computers and software for production and post-production. Pre-Production Planning for Video, Film, and Multimedia also includes 30 planning, production, and post-production forms that can be accessed on the accompanying disk (in Word 6 for both PC and MAC).
