We have completed two units of production. We have tackled terminology and even produced some entertaining talk shows all while imitating different roles in production.
If I were a new student today in DVP explain to me what you have learned about the production process. Identify 3 key concepts you learned and 1 you want to know more about.
I've only been in DVP for a little over a month now, and feel that I've learned a lot. I've learned more about what goes into each of the 3 stages of production, and what it would be like to work in each. I was never aware of how important the preproduction stage was. I knew that planning was important, but did not know the extent of its' importance. I learned the most about the production stage, and all the individual jobs that go into to it. I've also learned a lot about the postproduction, but it is the one I am still eager to learn more about. I am excited to see what it is that goes into finalizing a video and making it what the rest of the world sees it as.

ReplyDeleteThere are three productions phases to video.
ReplyDeletePre-production where you plan and decide where you want your video to go and how to effect the viewer.
Production where you shoot and capture the idea on camera in raw form
Post production where everything is set in stone and will be the product your viewer will see.
I want to know more about production and all the things that can happen within it the different angles that can be taken and the sets that can be created to make such things. The tricks and tips that make up such good master pieces and tricks that fool the normal eye and maybe even those who know about editing and camera work.
The production process is pretty complicated, there is a lot of parts that go into it and obviously it's important to know all of it. What I have learned so far is that there is three parts, preproduction, production, and postproduction. All parts are crucial and it takes time, money, and a lot of planning.
ReplyDeleteIn preproduction we brainstorm, plan, determine budget, storyboard, and determine location. Also at this time you evaluate if its even doable or if it's worth doing, and the producer plays a big role in this process.
In the production process we film, deal with the lights, sound, and angles. We stay focused on time, teamwork and communication to create a masterpiece. Patience is a key part of this process because without it, it wouldn't run smoothly.
In the postproduction process we work on the editing part of it. We filter, edit sound, add SFX if need be, promote, and review the final product.
Another thing I have learned is production teams. The nontechnical personnel consists of the executive producer, producer, line producer, director, talent, actor, performer, writer, and music director. The technical personnel consists of chief engineer, technical director, lighting director, camera operators, video operators, and video editor. Now, if you pass the buck you are sure to fail and get fired, so we don't want to do that. But that's about what I have learned so far. Good stuff!
Before coming into DVP I had already know about the 3 stages of production. I knew just the main definition of each of them and that was it. In this class we went into more detail about the preproduction, production, postproduction processes. I learned so much more about preproduction like budgeting, angle, program objective. In the production stage its more than just filming its also getting food for people to eat. The postproduction stage is editing the sound, picture and putting pieces together. One thing I want to know more about is directing.
ReplyDeleteI've learned that there are three phases to production.
ReplyDeletepreproduction
production
post production
and ive also learned who does what in each phase of production.
i would like to learn more about the process as a whole and how to do each job. and get some hands on experiance.
what i have learned in DVP so far for the past month has been so much! half of the stuff ive already learned in here i didnt know. or never even knew was important. one main thing that i have learned so far was that it takes a lot of team for for studio production, i ussaly do field so i had no idea of how many positions the production team called for, it was amazing being able to reenact all of the positions as if we were on a talk show. i learned so much from that and it was all "pretend". one thing that i do want to learn more about is the camera itself. i know nothing. and i really want to know all of it. so far the class has been GREAT! and i can not wait to cover and learn more about digital video production!!
ReplyDeleteThe production process I think is quite common sense but yes indeed complex. I mean there is 3 phases preproduction, production, and postproduction. Preproduction consists of everything before production meaning brainstorming, script, how you want to approach the story-this going into storyboarding, the producer, director, talent, and budget, etc. You have to know everything you want to accomplish and how you are going to accomplish it in preproduction first (have a basic idea of the story). Production simply means filming. You have your actors acting, hosts hosting, director directing, etc. The director helps accomplish the story, he tells the story. Postproduction is finishing want you have accomplished. Adding sfx (sound effects) to the product polishing it up a bit so people like us can enjoy and the whole production team hope to have made money or at least have made a successful film. One thing I do want know more is the directing and acting process and their role in the entire production as well as how they distribute the final product and how productions make money.
ReplyDeleteI have learned about the 3 processes to production Preproduction, Production and Postproduction.
ReplyDeletePreproduction- Is where you plan out your production phase. Identify your budget, cast, production team and where you want you video to go, if the idea is doable, and how to effect the viewer.
Production- Is where you are in action, when you are doing all your filming. Its where you capture shots.
Postproduction- Is when you start the editing and when you finalize your film. Also When you add sounds, special effects, and etc. It is when you have the raw shot and finalize them. It is where the final film is created.
I want to know more about the production phase, more about the direct. Also the challenges they face and exactly what it take to become a director, also the different variety of jobs that director can do from a film to a live talk show.
I learned about the different stages of production and what all goes into them. I now know that there is a lot more to production than filming. I learned that the preproduction phase pretty much determines the rest of the project. I also learned that postproduction can take longer than the other two phases combined.
ReplyDeleteThe three different key concepts i learned was the three phase of production
ReplyDeleteI learned that preproduction is a huge part of the production phase and that if you pay a lot of attention in this phase it will save you a lot of time in the of two phases. This phase consist of scripting, brainstorming and other things that deals with planning ahead.
I learned that production starts right when you load your vehicle with equipment and start to head out to film. This is where you start to film and try to carry out what preproduction had in mind
Postproduction is when you edit video and audio. This is where you add your final touches and transport the film to the viewers.
I would like to know more of the role in production. There is still a lot to be learned about cameras, lighting, and other methods of shooting. I would like to know as much as can about this area.
Welcome new student! DVp is a very fun class but requires a lot of work. Just to get the basics done you need to the know the three phases of production: Preproduction, Production, and Postproduction.
ReplyDeletePreproduction is when you get the backbone set for your movie. During this phase you plan out many things like Time, Money, Location, Cast, Crew, Ideas, Contracts, and so on. To understand the production and the post production a lot easier AND faster you must carefully listen and know everything going on during the preproduction. It is the MOST IMPORTANT phase. Normally what is best for preproduction is when you cluster ideas with other people within our production group. When you get many ideas you can make a more interesting ideas to attract more of the viewers you are wanting.
Production is the key phase to MAKING your video. Obviously this phase is when you actually record you footage and sound to use for the post production phase. This phase allows you to setup, distribute food for your crew/cast, shoot your film, manage makeup, etc. Production can be quite hard sometimes because you are trying to approach the audience with the view you had imagined during the preproduction. To do that you must create ANGLES that show your POV of the production. This phase should always try to be on schedule or you can lose lots of money by getting many delays. Time is money, especially for making film.
Post production, in my opinion, is probably the most fun part of making films because during this phase you can make your imagination come to life with either VFX or SFX. Always cutting out the content/footage that isn't needed in your final product gives it a more clean and professional look. Since you seem very interested with post production ill add a little information to your "knowledge base". To edit videos you need a program to cut and spice up your videos to give it a more profession feel. For Example: Final Cut Pro is an Apple based product given to set a more professional environment to the average or studio editor. It gives an editor all of the tools needed to change color, add text, and cut out all unneeded footage. On the other hand a program like Adobe After Effects allows you to add more of special effects to your videos. Within AE it is possible for you to create a special effect from scratch and then eventually overlay that on top of your video which you then render that or transfer into FCP one again and compress it from a 5+ Gb to a much less and reasonable file size, but if you do that remember that you always lose quality of your final product.
^^ i feel so smart xD
At first when you get into this class, and you start going over the different types of productions, it's kind of confusing, but after a while you start to catch on it becomes a lot easier. there are three parts of production; there is Pre-production, which is where you do all the planning and brainstorming. Then, there is Production, which is where you can actually start filming the production. Finally here is the best part; Post-production, where you go back after you've shot all the film you need, then you take the best ones and then you can start editing the shots, which is my favorite part of the whole thing!!
ReplyDeleteSo if you like any of the three production phases, then is definitely the class for you!
I Learned about the terminology and the basic operations of pre-production, production and post-production phases. The 3 critical concepts of the class so far are good and thorough planning, competant execution-adapting where nesscessary and meeting deadlines. the bit i want to learn more about is the post production phase.
ReplyDeletei've known about the three stages of production, but not so much about the details such as brainstorming, the roles you can take in the 3 stages of production, and how hard it is to run a live show. i like how this class takes on a whole new approach on DVP; instead of learning things from an outsiders perspective i'm learning it as if i'm gonna pursue this career. which i am.
ReplyDeleteSome main concepts are preproduction, production itself, and postproduction.
ReplyDeletePreproduction is where all the planning and coordination of details before the actual production starts. Some parts of preproduction are
Brainstorming (where it involves just letting your mind go and just think)
Clustering (basically like in English where you start with a word and branch off ideas from it)
Program Objective (How you want the audience to know)
Angle (The approach to the story)
Evaluation (Is it worth doing? Is it doable?)
Script (Your blueprint to the story)
Next is Production where Preproduction comes in handy and when the story becomes reality
You will need a production team to do a production like a director and a producer
It also includes having actors and at least a camera to work with
Last but not least is Postproduction team where you put all of the clips into a movie
It does not need as much people as in production does
You will still need the Director and the Producer for this
Sound is a necessity so make sure you have someone who can design the sound
And finally an editor is the the most important of all in postproduction where the editor compiles all of the clips together
One thing I want to know soon is how to do lighting because I always have issues with lighting when doing it in general.
we have learned about pre production production and post production and some of the things that happens during each of those phases. We've learned about some of the work that goes into them and that a lot of teamwork is required. Personally i would like to learn more about each of them but production and postproduction in particular.

ReplyDeleteI had a basic understanding of the three phases of production before I started dvp class, but through the past two weeks I now have a more fleshed out idea of each phase. I want to further learn more about lighting and everything associated with it.
ReplyDeleteThree phases I have learned about production are preproduction, production, and postproduction.
ReplyDeletePreproduction is mostly the planning out the necessary details before production.
Production consists of shooting the video and capturing all the elements needed to create the vision of the program objective
Postproduction is enhancing the picture and sound qualities, along with picking out an piecing together the best shots taken.
I want to learn more about how to make special effects, because they make great movies.

ReplyDeleteWell im going to be straight forward with you, before i took this class i knew almost to nothing about video production and i didn't think there was so much to learn! But now i learned the 3 basic key phases production, preproduction, production and postproduction. I already feel smart just being able to understand what they are and being able to work each task. i would definately want too learn more about production and having some hands on experience with the cameras and doing some graphic designs, editing is also something im highly interested in along with the music ssoundtracks.
ReplyDeleteIn this class we have learned the three stages of the production process.
ReplyDeleteWe have learn pre-production which involves the planning, writing, and scripting of the story. Many people underestimate the importance of pre-production, but it is the structure and foundation of the whole entire process.
The second of the process is production which involves the shooting of the movie, sound, design, time management, actors, actresses, performers, the crew and cast, setting up and tearing down, and lighting. Production is the fun and action part of the whole process but can also be stressful at times.
The third of the process is post-production which involves the editing, enhancing, sound mixing, special effects, and finding and fixing the movie mistakes or bloopers. This is the last stage that touches up the movie and makes it into its solid final state.
I want to learn more about the production stage and the actual shooting of the video. I want to learn more about the angle shots and the imagination that producers and directors put into their shootings and angles.
I've learned the three phases of production in this class
ReplyDeletePreproduction is when you sort out your ideas and put them on a script.
Production is when you get out there and shoot your project.
And Postproduction is when you find the best shots and edit your movie into the finished product
Test..one two three
ReplyDeleteI wasn't aware of the actual difficulty involved in video production till I took this class. There's much more meticulous planning than I had previously anticipated. I will say however, that despite the amount of planning involved, it's one of the most interesting things I've been a part of learning about.
ReplyDeleteThere's three phases essentially. Pre-production, production, and post-production. All are important and can sink an entire project if not executed correctly.
Pre-production focuses more on the planning and brainstorming. It's where you really get an idea of what you want. A little idea could eventually turn into a big success. It's a matter of how well you plan it out.
Production is where you put these idea's into action. This is the point where you really move forwards into your project. You turn your planning and idea's into a reality.
I find post-production (being a video editor myself) to be the most interesting part of production. Video editing is where the magic happens. It's where you can really make something shine. I'd love to learn more about it, and get more hands on experience with editing softwares.
Mine got deleted...
ReplyDeleteWhat I learned in DVP class
Pre Production:planning to make a video, the more time you spend on this the better your production and post will go.
Production:The actual shooting and active part of making the video. you have to write a shot list, find locations, scripting, manage the budget, and plenty of team work and communication.
Postproduction:This is when you start to editing the sound and picture. You also have to compose the music, make thee sound effects and prepare for distribution.
What i want to learn: I want to learn about running audio, lighting, and how to use some of the equipment.
i learn that there are three phases production. preproduction, production.and postproduction. and that there teams to these phases. the preproduction which came with the idea and vision of the production. the production team makes the idea and vision happen. the postproduction team edits and makes the idea and vision real
ReplyDeletei would like to learn about editing and the camera
