About Film Production

GoConqr Original

What this unit covers

The page follows a film from first idea to final edit. The mind map Film Production sets out the stages: development, pre-production, production and post-production. It branches into finding ideas, funding, target audience, budgeting, building a crew, costumes, props and effects, and filming.

Where to start

Begin with the Film Production mind map to see the whole process. Then open the flashcard deck DRAM-2366 Final Exam. It asks you to define pre-production, production and post-production, and asks what a foley artist does.

Next, choose the area you need:

  • Planning locations: the maps Recce, Location Recce and Location Scouting Plan cover sound, wind, traffic, access, permission, risks and light.
  • People and jobs: Production Company- TV & Film lays out the creative team, production department and script department. Main Roles in Film Production and Jobs on a film set cover similar ground.
  • Craft: the Cinematography map covers camera shots, angles, movement and focus. Editing Techniques and Continuity Editing (Moving Image Arts) cover the edit.

Using quizzes and maps together

Read a map first, then close it and try a quiz. Film Skill and Theory Testing Pre-Employment Assessment asks about lighting units and other technical kit. Location Audio checks what you took in about sound. Wrong answers tell you which map to reopen.

Some resources are students' own project work, such as film ideas, horror concepts and evaluation notes. They show how others planned a short film, and teachers can use them as examples.

Where it fits

This unit sits in the Film and Video Production strand of Photography and film. Everything here was made by GoConqr users, and it is free to open and study.

Choose one map today, work through it, then try a quiz and see what stuck.

Frequently asked questions

Which resource should I open first?

Start with the Film Production mind map. It gives the overview: development, pre-production, production and post-production. After that, the flashcard deck DRAM-2366 Final Exam is a quick way to check the key definitions before you move into more detailed maps.

What do the location recce maps cover?

Recce, Location Recce and Location Scouting Plan look at what to check before filming somewhere. Topics include background noise, traffic, wind, echo, access, permission, payment, opening times, risks and light. The scouting plan also covers reading your script and checking power supplies.

Are there quizzes on this page?

Yes, there are 7. They include Film Skill and Theory Testing Pre-Employment Assessment, which covers technical questions such as lighting equipment, and Location Audio. Tsai Audio-Video Quiz is another option. Most of the page is mind maps, so use those to revise before you test yourself.

Are the resources free to use?

Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users rather than by GoConqr itself. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.

Can teachers use these resources?

Yes. Teachers can use the role maps, such as Roles & Responsibilities and Production Team, as ready-made starting points. Student project maps, like film ideas and evaluation notes, can work as examples of how a short film is planned and reviewed.

What if I can't find the topic I need?

Try nearby resources first. The Film Production flowcharts, storyboard flashcards and sound decks may cover it from another angle. If nothing fits, make your own mind map or flashcards on the topic and use them to revise.
