Production Checklist
Marketing/Advertising/Publicity Materials |
|
During
production there are
a number things you need to keep in mind in order position your film to
be as 'distributable' as possible for the worldwide market. Obviously,
for many of you, many of these things will simply be out of financial
reach, or you may not be able to get because of legal reasons. For
instance, the EPK (Electronic Press Kit) is usually done on certain
days set aside when a video crew comes to the set and does interviews
with actors, the director and whomever they deem interesting. It's an
important tool for publicity, word of mouth etc., however, if you are
stealing all your locations, your sag actors are there with no
agreement and the cops are looking for you, you may want to hide from
any publicity rather than attract it.
Finishing is everything. An option for this may be to get one of your friends to shoot video for the whole shoot, then you have a behind the scenes documentary, and EPK and the possibility for another film. I couldn't get the people that I hired to actually shoot anything with a camera that was on the set, or even show up. Believe it or not, even if you're not paying you have to choose wisely when hiring somebody for this job. I took what I got, which turned out to be nothing, which was exactly the amount of footage I got. |
