LOGISTICS: MATERIALS: INTERVIEWS

Image
In film there can be situations where you will need to hold interviews prior to production so there is enough time to gather the resources necessary. For example as part of research or to gather testimony, this will also give them time to find the right teams for the producing. For example they will need a graphic team for posters and CGI. They will need a sound and audio team for sound and music. For documentary production it is necessary to hold interviews before production as they will need to find out and justify a certain line or enquiry.

This is why they are so important during the pre-production stage of any project.  History:  Animatics used to be made by real paper and a rostrum camera. An illustrator  would work on the set and draw up everything needed for the animatic.
