Okay, if you haven't already seen the prequel to this instructable then go here: http://www.instructables.com/id/How_to_make_a_Professional_Short_Film_for_80_Par/ With that out of the way, welcome to part II of how to make a "professional" short film for $80. We will be discussing the production process. So you have your cast, equipment, location, and script. Notice I neglected to say crew. Well, for $80 we won't be hiring any big name cinematographers so congratulations on your new title you Producer-Director-Screenwriter-Location Scout-Technical Director-Casting Director-Cinematographer-Cameraman-Gaffer-Best Boy-etc multi-talented prodigy you. Even though your talents are prodigious in nature, you may want to bring a friend or two along as well - extra hands never hurt. We will discuss lighting, cinematography, basic camera settings, basic directing, some audio tips, and whatever else pops into my head as pertinent in this section. Did I miss your favorite part? Shoot me a comment and I will amend this instructable as soon as I can. Quick disclaimer - If you get arrested, injured or in anyway dead-ified (it is now a word) don't sue me - it's your fault. Apologies to various websites from whom I liberated pictures from and Keanu Reeves. Let's get started. If you haven't seen my $80 "professional" short then check out the trailer HERE and the full film HERE.
