How to shoot short films or micro-movies?

One: Theme positioning

The theme is the soul of a movie. First of all, we must determine what kind of microfilm to shoot, have a central idea, and work hard towards this theme in order to shoot an ideal microfilm.

Second: the script scheme

Pre-planning, script writing, communication with sponsors (or potential promotion customers) to determine the final script.

Three: story board

The purpose of this step is to make the later shooting and editing more organized and detailed, and to separate the shots of the same scene, so that the later shooting is more time-saving.

Four: the actor decides

Role selection, a good actor is more important than a good post-production. Contact the actors and arrange the shooting time and requirements.

Five: Preliminary preparation

Equipment preparation, choose appropriate photographic equipment according to the picture requirements of microfilm and your own technical ability, such as camera, tripod, slide rail and so on.

Before shooting, it is necessary to arrange the shooting date and choose the shooting site to ensure the shooting process is smoother. To achieve one step in the shooting position, everything is going on in a planned way.

Six: Post-production

After the filming is completed, a series of productions such as initial cutting, fine cutting, dubbing, soundtrack, subtitles, special effects, and packaging at the beginning and end of the film are carried out.

Let the whole movie achieve the ideal effect and bring the audience the feeling of audio-visual combination.
