Producing short films

To get an idea of the timescale and different aspects of the production of short films we have searched the internet and found some interesting and helpful webpages.

UCL's website has a production log of an intended short film, detailing the casting process, a shooting schedule and a camera log as well as giving a brief introduction to producing a film.

We have found an ebook called Producing and Directing the Short Film and Video By David K. Irving, Peter W. Rea which has what must be the best section on pre and post production of short films on the internet:

Both of these sites, especially the last one, will be extremely useful when we're trying to get our heads around our own production schedule!
