FILM PRODUCTION MANAGEMENT

Referring to the profession that the entire production process, here are some explanations about the production process in film production management.

1. Pre-production and Development

Pre-production is a stage of preparation before filming began. This process will determine the smoothness of the set later. Therefore, this process must be run with the best. There are some pre-production work on it, such as:
a. Election Style

Selection of style movie to be made shall be in accordance with the ability of the skills we have. It should also be adapted to the available budget. If not, then the results of the films that we make will not be maximized, perhaps even total failure. As for some of the style that we see are:
1) Full animation (rely on skill in the field of animation)
2) Full cinematography (rely on skill in the field of cinematography)
3) The combination of the two.

b. Selection of Theme and Story Ideas

Theme is a visual outline that we will create. Elections conducted brainstorming themes. For example, the theme is nature, gothic, humor, and others. After getting the theme, then we create detail in the form of a synopsis. Many see the reference is a very good thing. For some of us, sometimes making reference we want to create something beyond the reach of our skills. This sometimes makes poor quality or responsibility at all. Selection of ideas and references in accordance with our skills so that the challenge remains. Do not get too caught up with the rules in the making of the film. In my experience, it can make a feature film is not the same as the rules of a video.
In search of an idea for a synopsis, must take into account these important things:
1. Adjustment budget

Or by using the free facilities.

Ebb and Flow Hollywood Film Industry

Although in the classical era most movies have no color (black and white) and silent (silent), but the film has been able to project a certain image formation, provides an overview of a thing, and direct audience perspective.

The golden age of classical era (Classical Hollywood Cinema) must eventually come to an end when television began to emerge as the toughest rival for the producers of the film in about the year 1960. Many film industry based studio went bankrupt and had to close down, it is coupled with the advent of movies import / foreign film industry began to decorate at it which also brings auteurisme ideology. This led to the classic era of the film industry in decline and blow.

After the collapse of the industry-classic era of cinema, Hollywood began to organize themselves and improve a wide range of things to bring back the golden age. The emergence of talented young filmmakers from many film school graduates are beginning to show its capacity and influence in the film industry. Not only that, the marketing and promotion techniques were improved to enhance the quality of the film at the time. This era was later referred to a new era of Hollywood (New Hollywood Era / American New Wave). The most visible characteristic of the era in the movie is the incorporation of the theme / genre in a film that makes it more promising and exciting to watch. The film is made to have a more dynamic storylines and unexpected end, may also end up even controversial.

New golden-era Hollywood finally had collapsed in the 1980s. The main factor causing this collapse is the number of bankruptcies because the studio that produced the film was not able to generate profits for a substantial refund the cost of production. Some films are made sequel was not able mengasilkan big profit like the first film.

Development of Industrial Technology Film World

         Film is one of the tools for communication media. The development of the film industry that uses advanced technology rapidly growing.

Not only is the film a 2D (two-dimensional) but now the development of a 3D film (three-dimensional) no less lag.

• Star Wars

           

 Star Wars is the first film that is rich in the use of technology. This film uses information capture technology, which I make by using a computerized image of the real human action. Stereoscopic image is an image in which when we look at the screen as if we felt that they were very close. Method 3 D stereoscopic shooting was first invented by Sir Charles Wheatstone in 1840. Stereoscopy is used in photogrammetry as well as many in the world of entertainment through the production of stereograms.

Of course all of these technologies use the help of highly sophisticated computer technology. Camera technology used is a combination of two types of camera that makes shooting is done to provide the perspective of people shooting from three perspectives. Filmed using 197 cameras simultaneously, and real-time. This of course will make the picture taken becomes clearer and better.

• Avatar

The film was produced by Lightstorm Entertainment and technology Computer-Generated Imagery (CGI), 3D animation and visual effects work with Weta Digital from New Zealand. The pictures taken with the 3D fusion camera system and a touch of high-level resolution 3D film from Los Angles Studio.

These results are then translated into the film component. The files is then stored in storage by at Isilon IQ. One example is the race of the Na'vi (the indigenous inhabitants of Pandora's creatures in blue) are all CGI animation, not the actor or actress wearing makeup.

Weta uses NetApp to store incoming data, accommodating and rendering process. Space (space on disk) needed to accommodate the results of rendering the film Avatar nearly 1 Petabyte. This amount can be compared to 500 hard drives each with a capacity of 2 terabytes.

According to the management of this film, his rendering process takes 34 shelf computer machine. Where each shelf store 32 machines or more than 40,000 processors and 104 terabytes of memory.

NetApp storage technologies are also used to work on the movie Up, Cars, Finding Nemo, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, Transformers and others.

Inauguration own movie birth occurred in December 20, 1895. However it is still very common. The films produced are similar documentaries or movies that have been advanced but still mediocre quality.

First sound films appeared in the U.S. in 1927, in most of the film The Jazz Singer. Later in 1935, the public was startled by the advent of color film on most of the film Becky Sharp. Whereas in previous years the movie without sound (mute) and black and white.

In some big cities in Indonesia, circa 1920's, there have been several movie theater that plays western movies (still dumb). In 1927, two European nations, Carly F and G Kruger, trying to make a film short stories in the city, and a monkey called Rulis Acih Kasarung. The first time the film was produced in 1927.
