Video Production Process
Video production is more than simply pressing the record
button on your video camera.

The process of creating a video from concept to completion

consists of three phases:
Pre-Production -is where all the planning and coordination happens,
Production -is when you capture all the elements that will be in your final video
and phase three
Post-Production -is where all the elements get edited together and
combined to create the final video.
Three Phases of Video Production

Film Genre
Film Genres
Film genres are various forms or identifiable types, categories, classifications or
groups of films.

Genres provide a convenient

way for scriptwriters and film-makers
to produce, cast and structure their narratives within a manageable,
well-defined framework (to speak a common 'language').

Script Writing
One of the first steps for creating a video project is the script writing. A script is
necessary whether a video project is a feature length motion picture, a short
training video or even an account of a family vacation. A script is a document
that describes the video, which includes descriptions of the various shots
and any dialogue/voice overs.

A script is basically your story that is structured in a way that will make it easier
for you to determine the specifications needed for filming

Trimming and Splitting a Video

Cut: you crop the video and can’t get the part you removed back by
“dragging” the side of the clip towards the direction you cut it.

Trim: same as cutting but you can get the part you removed back by
“dragging” the side of the clip.

Split: you separate the clip in two parts. Both stay intact, they are just
divided where you split them.

2. Think of a concept and write a sensible

script that would fit to the scenes in the
video clip. The words in the script should
NOT be less than 80. (The script should be
entirely different from the one used in the
video clip.)
Main topic/concept of the script must be
