LEARN POST PRODUCTION
You’re just catching your breath from a demanding shoot. You’re on your last legs but you did it; you got everything you needed in the can. It’s time for post production.
POST PRODUCTION 101
The first step in post-production is picture editing. This is where the footage is placed together in a deliberate order, and it is completed by an editor. The editor is aided by an assistant editor (or multiple assistant editors) who helps organize footage. The editor will work through the cut in stages - first the assembly, then the rough cut, the fine cut, and finally, the final cut.
ADDITIONAL VISUALS IN THE POST PRODUCTION WORKFLOW
Nowadays, there is often visual effects work to be done. This isn’t relegated to just sci-fi and fantasy projects; VFX are all over almost every movie and TV show today. The process is overseen by the VFX supervisor.
Next up is coloring which is conducted by the colorist, who typically works very closely with the cinematographer and director to get footage looking right. A colorist has two primary jobs. First, they color correct, then there’s color grading, where the coloring can become more stylized.
AUDIO POST PRODUCTION PROCESS WORKFLOW IN FILM
Sound is overseen by the supervising sound editor. First is sound editing, where all the sounds are put in place. There’s also music, which has a team including a composer, music supervisor, music editor, and more. Once all the sounds are recorded and in place, it all needs to be mixed together by the re-recording mixer.
As you can see, there’s a lot of work that goes into post-production, and it can be a lengthy process involving hundreds of people. But it’s worth putting the time and money into it. Post-production makes or breaks a movie.
