Plan the film beyond the shoot day

Practical thinking for a more focused project.

Decide what the film must communicate

Begin with the audience, message and intended action. Agree the narrative before selecting locations, equipment or visual treatments.

Plan the versions early

A main website film, vertical social edits and a presentation cut may require different framing and pacing. Record the formats in the brief before the shoot.

Prepare people and permissions

Agree interview topics, schedules, access and any relevant usage permissions. Preparation helps the shoot focus on useful material.

Leave room for post-production

Editing, sound, colour and graphics each influence the result. Make time for review and define who consolidates feedback.

Deliver for actual use

Specify resolutions, aspect ratios, captions and naming conventions. A well-organised handover makes the finished work easier to publish and reuse.
