Before it can be delivered for broadcast or distribution, every television show or feature film must undergo a complex and lengthy process after the scenes have been shot. When this process is not managed properly, the result is a project that is late and therefore over budget and losing money for its backers, because the distributor will not pay until the show is delivered. This book, written by two experienced associate producers, takes the reader through every step of the post production process, explaining the technology in non-technical terms and detailing what must be done before moving on to the next step. The book includes a number of insider tips, sample forms. and reports that will simplify these tasks, as well as a glossary of terms. Because of the recent growth of production, there is increased demand for knowledgeable staff in post-production. Often people are promoted to positions in this field with little or no prior experience, yet they are saddled with huge creative, financial and time-sensitive responsibilities. This book was written with both the student and professional in mind, to provide one comprehensive resource on this complex process.
