History: Behind The Scenes Photography

- Development—The script is written and drafted into a workable blueprint for a film.
- Pre-production—Preparations are made for the shoot, in which cast and crew are hired, locations are selected, and sets are built.
- Production—The raw elements for the finished film are recorded.
- Post-Production—The film is edited; production sound (dialogue) is concurrently (but separately) edited, music tracks (and songs) are composed, performed and recorded, if a film is sought to have a score; sound effects are designed and recorded; and any other computer-graphic 'visual' effects are digitally added, all sound elements are mixed into "stems" then the stems are mixed then married to picture and the film is fully completed ("locked").
