  • Check out my youtube channel, for several trailers of

  • sounds like alot but it all depends on the productions budget the prep work and the crew. Obviously more footage the better, after all whatever your creating is a visual presentation so having the correct footage that works at the edit stage will often take many Takes to achieve,not to mention the x factor (problems along the way which may force pickups). But in the end R&D and Pre planing is key. Not everything will transfer well from script to screen, but more time invested the better results

  • Whao, that sounds like a ton of work.
