Ask some questions about movies ~

First of all, there must be a script, which is rewritten into a movie script by the screenwriter (of course, the movie script can also be written directly by the screenwriter), and then the director rewrites it into a lens book, and then shoots according to the lens book, which is considered as the early stage.

After the shooting, it goes into post-production, including editing, dubbing, special effects, music and sound effects, and then it becomes the movie you see.

From the traditional concept of film production, the basic technical cost of a film being shown in the cinema in the film era is only about 3 million. After entering the digital age, the basic technical cost of shooting a film that can pass the domestic technical review and be shown in the cinema is almost 2 million.

The so-called "basic technical cost" means that these costs are already the lowest market price, and if they are lower, they will not be available, which will affect the normal shooting. These include photographic equipment, lighting equipment, related consumables, basic production expenses, basic personnel remuneration (this is the part with the largest floating area, and many times the so-called "face brushing" is basically concentrated in this area), basic post-production expenses and so on.

If it is only the most basic standard concept of "drama", I have seen someone shoot one for 5000 yuan (with HDV).

This year's Oscar for best foreign language film A Farewell to Iran cost 300,000 US dollars (less than 2 million RMB). Flowers of war, which has been trying to enter the shortlist for the best foreign language film at the Academy Awards, claims that the production cost is about 654.38 billion US dollars (600 million RMB).

Therefore, it can be said that there is no threshold for filming, or it can be said that the threshold is very high. It all depends on what kind of movie you want to make.

The money for making a film is from the producer's script to the signing of a contract with the film company and the convening of directors, actors and other staff. Then issue an announcement to attract investment from all parties. The outside world will invest according to the influence of the film, and the film company will also pay some money. Then the director and producer can use the money to prepare for the boot.

Lost, no one pays the bill, and the money of sponsors and film companies is wasted. It's like a gamble.
