1. Preparation

1) to get the script

There are two kinds of scripts, original scripts and adapted scripts. For the original scripts, you can buy others to complete the scripts or edit them now. To adapt a script, you need to buy the right of film and television adaptation from the original copyright owner, and then find a screenwriter to write the script.

2) Specify the budget

After getting the script, analyze the elements of the script itself, such as the story, the scenes involved, etc., and predict the film market prospects, determine the production scale, and formulate the budget.

3) Establish a cast.

After the budget is made, directors, actors, photographers and other creative personnel are selected to form a crew according to the budget.

4) Choose scenery and make props.

After the confirmation of the main creator, it is necessary to determine the shooting scene (interior and exterior), prepare props, and rent photographic lighting equipment. The director completed the shooting schedule and shooting plan.

5) Review the script and get permission to shoot.

After determining the script and the investor, send it to SARFT for review and apply for permission to shoot.
