Thanks for showing this. What a great overview. The end ending was real encouraging for us little guys. I like to think in terms of four. So film making can generally be broken down to four steps. These steps can be subdivided. One nice thing about movies is that they use the most generic names for their steps. That could apply to any creative work. So switching mediums is easier. One can figure out new processes by comparing them to the old ones. These four steps could apply to small videos on UA-cam. Then they can go all the way up to full blown blockbuster movies. The first step is preproduction. The minimum is writing a script. In bigger projects, their is planning out the schedule and finances. Their is also hiring cast and crew. There is building sets, costumes and concept art. I recently learned that scripting is a separate step. That is more a subdivision than anything. The second stage is production. This is where the video footage actually gets filmed. This is the most straightforward part. The third stage is post production. The minimum is editing the video. The video and sound goes together. In bigger projects, there is special effects. In live action movies these days flashy effects are common, especially CG. That shows how important this stage is. Imagine a movie where all the characters talk and wander around in front of a green screen. That would be so boring. The green screen is supposed to be converted to fancy backgrounds in postproduction. The fourth step is distribution. It is a new one to me. It does make sense. It is nice for this video to explain that at the end. This is a legit step. Big projects distribute the movie for theaters, streaming services and DVDs. There are also promotional events, like trailers, premiers and interviews. Small productions can have distribution that is way different. The video is uploaded to UA-cam or some alternative video sharing site. There is social media use to promote the video. The video can also be shared in crowdfunding sites, like Patreon and Kickstarter. One nice thing about stage 4 is that it helps the filmmakers take a break while still being productive. That is good. Such a break can help keep creative burnout at bay. Ugh! I hate burnout. I do have experience with writing. I have written books in the past. There is nothing that created much fame and attention. The process of writing a book goes through the same four steps. The work is just changed for a different medium. This process should be familiar to most people. English is a required subject in public school. Written assignments like essays and reports work the same way. They are just much shorter. The preproduction stage is writing an outline. This can also include brainstorming, research, world building, character sheets and a story bible. The production stage is writing the rough draft. Again, this is really straightforward. The post production stage is editing. This includes all necessary improvements from revising to proofreading. The distribution is publishing. Note that publishing companies get involved with both steps three and four. The fourth one happens after the text is finalized. A book cover is added. Contrary to the popular saying about judging books, the cover is one of the most important part of promotion. It may be the number one most important. Book copies get printed. Then they are sold through the internet and brick and mortar bookstores. There are advertisements for an upcoming book. The author may get into promotional events like interviews and book signings. School assignments don't get published. Instead, the distribution process is the student turning it into the teacher. Then the teacher gives feedback in the form of a grade. The teacher is the only intended audience, but that still counts as distribution.
Wow Ryan, your videos are always an inspiration, the way you describe everything makes me wish to be in a studio viewing how everything is created (I know that it is a very hard work) but it is like my "Disney". I never miss one of your video, you are amazing! Thanks for what you do.
@@RyanCampFilms just a question. Really wild. But when I am finished with writing my script, would you mind checking it? Id really like a professional view on it with some critic feedback
Thank you for this video. 10/10!.... Ever since I've watched the "Behind The Scenes" of how the Harry Potter movies were made, i've wanted to know more. It was fascinating to see all of that stuff, but i wanted to know what the process looks like from A - Z. You've made it very easy to understand. Cheers! :)
I'm sitting on an original screenplay that will terraform for centuries to come I don't want to sell I want to produce what you guys think would be the best approach
We live in a Lucifer and reality that means everybody steals your picture your picture your pitch it and then eventually if it comes everybody else's story but I appreciate your efforts
Because sometimes as a husband and father of 3 kids, with 2 jobs, it’s easier for me to make informational videos quickly and easy using stock footage Instead of going out and shooting a bunch of stuff. It’s FREE content for you, but it takes time out of my life to make it. Hope that clears it up?
@@RyanCampFilms Shooting a bunch of stuff? Takes 10 minutes to make a diagram showing post production work flow and would make it clearer for people. You chose to get married and have kids, generally not a good idea to use that as a negative to explain things. Thanks for the video anyway.
I wasn’t using it as a negative, friend. I CHOOSE to spend more time with my family over spending my free time making a diagram for negative people like you. You came to my channel and posted a negative sounding comment. You didn’t sound thankful for the video in any way whatsoever in your first comment. Don’t try to spin things now. This was meant to be a an overview video briefly explaining the various parts of the filmmaking process, not an in-depth breakdown featuring diagrams. That’s not the video I set out to make.

Great vid...
Thank you!
What technology could be used to make a Hollywood quality type movie by yourself?
You only need yourself, a camera, and editing software. I have quite a few videos on the channel dedicated to the subject.
@@RyanCampFilms Thanks!
GOOD
Thank you! 🙏🏼
good

Try to pitch it and get someone to fund it. ua-cam.com/video/vTPyxoywq4Y/v-deo.html&feature=share7
We live in a Lucifer and reality that means everybody steals your picture your picture your pitch it and then eventually if it comes everybody else's story but I appreciate your efforts
Don't forget being apart of a Union. It will help in protection too ensure pay and enforce the importance of not doing projects for free.

Okay so even with the script in the actor who decides the characteristics and the personality of the actor or actresses
Who decides the actors personality in nuances ?
I’d say it’s a combination; a little bit of the actor, the script and the director.

Can I get in the movie

I will make a movie in 100006 days

@@RyanCampFilms but I want one chance
😢
Why so sad?
sorry
Np
it was way to long
It’s supposed to be long… 🤦🏽♂️
It’s a lot of information.
And it is, it can take hours just to make a scene
You made an explainer videos using stock footage only. No post production workflow diagrams, nothing. Why?
Because sometimes as a husband and father of 3 kids, with 2 jobs, it’s easier for me to make informational videos quickly and easy using stock footage Instead of going out and shooting a bunch of stuff. It’s FREE content for you, but it takes time out of my life to make it. Hope that clears it up?
