Goodmorning,ladiesandgentlemen!

Let'sstartthisintroductiontofilmmakingwithasimplequestion:

Howmanyofyouhaveseenamoviethisweek?

Itdoesn'tmatterifitwasatthetheaterorjustonyourownTV...Uhhuh,justasIthought,almostallofyouhave.

Ofcourse,mostofuslovethemovies—themagic,theescapethattheyprovide,butmostofusrarelystoptothinkabouttheprocessofmakingamovie.Justwhatdoesittaketogetthatmoviefromtheideastagetothefinalproduct?

Whatarethedecisionsthatmustbemade?

Whatproblemsareencountered?

Exactlyhowdoesamoviestudiogoaboutmakingamovie?

Thesearepreciselythetopicsthatwewillbeexploringtoday.

Therearesixbasicstepsthatarenormallyfollowedintheproductionofafull-lengthfilm.I'lloutlinethemforyou.

Thefirststepisratherobvious--tomakeafilmyoumusthaveanidea..,astory...sometopicfortheproject.Thestudiomustfindaproperty.That'sakeyword,folks—property,p-r-o-p-e-r-t-y.Youallknowthecommonmeaningofthisword,ofcourse,butinfilmmakingtheword"property"hasaveryspecificmeaning.Apropertyisthestoryonwhichthemoviewillbebased.Okay,it'sthestoryonwhichthemovieisbased.Youareprobablywonderingwhywecallitaproperty.Well,itbelongstosomeone;itisthatperson's"property"andmustbeacquiredbythestudio,sometimesforquitealargesumofmoney.

Therearebasicallytwokindsofproperties.Thefirstisanoriginalstorythathasneverappearedanywherebefore—neverbeeninabook,ormagazine,oranotherfilm.Inotherwords,thestoryisintendedfromtheverybeginningtobemadeintoamovie.

StarWarsisonegoodexampleofthistypeofproperty—youdorememberthatfamoussciencefictionfilm,don'tyou?

AnotherexampleisBacktotheFuture—oh,andalsoRocky.Allofthesewerebasedonastorywrittenonlyforthepurposeofmakingamovie.

Actuallythough,themajorityofproperties,forfamousfilmsatleast,comefromnovels,plays,ormusicalsthatarealreadypublished.ExamplesofthistypeofpropertyincludeTheSoundofMusic,whichwasoriginallyaplay,Tess,afamousnovel,andTheGodfather,whichwasalsofirstanovel.

Okay,that'sstepnumberone—findingaproperty.

Well,nowwehavetheproperty.Thenextstepistoprepareascriptfromthatproperty.Thispartoftheprocesscantakeseveralmonthsorsometimesevenayearormore.It'squitealengthyandtime-consumingprocess.Duringthistime,thescriptwriter,producer,anddirectorusuallyworkverycloselywitheachother.

Recently,therehasbeenatrendtoalsohavetheoriginalwriter—theoriginalpropertyowner—takepartintheproductionofthescript.Thismeansthatifthepropertyistakenfromabookorplay,theoriginalauthorofthebookorplayisinvolvedinwritingthescript.Thisisagoodtrend,Ithink.Whocouldpossiblyknowthestorybetterorunderstanditmoreclearlythanitsoriginalcreator?

Anotheroption,however,isfordirectorstowritescriptsthemselves.Thisoftenoccursbecausescriptwritersarenotonlyresponsibleforthedialog,buttheyalsomustspecifywhatkindofcamerashotstheywantused.Forinstance,inallscenes,andespeciallylongscenesthatdon'thaveanydialog,thescriptwritermustdescribewhatthecamerashouldfocuson,whatshouldbeinthecenteroftheshot,whatmoodtheimageshouldpresent.Directorshavemuchmoreexperiencewithcameraworkandoftenprefertowritethescriptthemselvesforthisreason.

Sothat'sstepnumbertwo—writingthescript.
