Research into
roles
As I am working alone I will have to complete all of the
given tasks myself. My main roles are producer, cinematographer, editor
director and writer. By writing about these roles it will help me become more
familiar with my tasks.
Producer:
·
Location Scout.
Location scouting is a vital process in the pre-production stage of filmmaking and commercial photography. Once scriptwriters, producers or directors have decided what general kind of scenery they require
for the various parts of their work that is shot outside of the studio, the search for a
suitable place or "location" outside the studio begins. Location scouts also look for generally spectacular
or interesting locations beforehand, to have a database of locations in case of
requests.
·
Production Designer.
·
Marketing.
As
producer I will have to ensure that I have generated interest in my movie
trailer. I will do through my subsidiary tasks and social media. For
example, making the magazine cover and promotion poster. This will generate
more hype.
Director:
A
film director is a person who directs the making of
a film. Generally, a film director controls
a film's artistic and dramatic aspects, and visualises the script while guiding
the technical crew and actors in the fulfilment of that vision.
Writer:
The job of a writer is to
create the back story for visuals of a movie. This will help me establish
guidelines that I need to follow in order to make my trailer look professional.

Storyboard Artist
A storyboard artist, or
story artist, creates
storyboards for advertising agencies and film productions. A storyboard artist visualizes stories and sketches frames
of the story on paper. Quick pencil drawings and marker renderings are two of
the most common traditional techniques, although nowadays Flash, Photoshop, Adobe Premiere Pro and other storyboard applications are
gradually taking over. The digital camera is one of the latest techniques in
creating storyboards

Technical Director

The Technical Director has to take care of the technical set including
lighting, sound, set design and construction, and coordinating necessary
maintenance.
Editor:
The film editor
works with the raw footage, selecting shots and combining them into sequences to create a finished motion picture. Film editing is described as an art or skill, the only art
that is unique to cinema, separating filmmaking from other art forms that
preceded it, although there are close parallels to the editing process in other
art forms such as poetry and novel writing. Film editing is often referred to
as the "invisible art” because
when it is well-practiced, the viewer can become so engaged that he or she is
not even aware of the editor's work.
