The film development process begins with the creation of a script, which outlines the story, characters, and dialogue. This script is then refined through various drafts, often involving feedback from producers and directors. Once the script is finalized, the project moves into pre-production, where casting, location scouting, and budgeting take place. After pre-production, the film enters the production phase, where actual filming occurs. This involves coordinating actors, crew, and equipment to capture the scenes as planned. Following production, the film goes into post-production, where editing, sound design, and visual effects are added to complete the final product.
