On February 17th, I've been asked to give a group of low/no budget filmmakers a short (1-2hours with Q&A) talk on the theme "Shoot for Post" .
The idea is to give some examples and tips on how to do avoid common mistakes in filming movie shorts and documentaries that have a good chance of being watchable by avoiding things that can't be fixed in post – at least not within the budget and time constraints small independent filmmakers have.
Many of these folks are of the run and gun variety and most have never heard of a lined script, much less the importance good slating and note taking, to say nothing of great camera work.
I have a long list of simple things to talk about like most everyone else on here does – even with not so low budget productions. I'd like it to be a helpful exchange, not a critical one. Just pointing out some common things that could easily be handled in planning and production, rather than post from an editor's POV.
If you have some good examples of tips for small independent filmmakers, I'd like to hear them.
Thanks
