Pre-Viz Biz

Pre visualising is one of the most important aspects of the film making process. When I talk about pre-viz I don't mean only concept art and costume design or spfx sequences and so forth, I'm using the term to broadly describe a process that helps the team get into a headspace that will ensure we're all on the same page when the shoot comes around. So it's rehearsing and workshops, it's make up tests and wardrobe fits, it's cam tests and physical training, it's story boarding on paper and on video.

It's a process that lets all know what is expected of them, how they are expected to do it and gives an indication of the final effect we are aiming for - which is often something hard to extract into words from one's own brain area.

The desired result is a more efficient shoot and a higher level of creative and technical quality achieved in less time. Which is film making GOLD.

Anyhoo check out the latest Vlog, a cam test for 50 frames with some falling over and bleeding, a test that will help us design the way we need to shoot for effect.
