YO FILMMAKERS: "The Cry of the Independent Filmmaker who actually finish their film (A) On-Budget and (B) On-Schedule is....ORGANIZE, ORGANIZE, ORGANIZE". And, always remember the lower in budget you are, the more organized you must be. On the prior 4 Hot Tips, I outlined organization during Pre-Production & Production now let's discuss Post-Production and the organizing you should do during Pre-Production to be ready for Post-Production.
POST-PRODUCTION (Planning during Pre-Production)
1) Hire a Post-Production Supervisor (likely your DP, on a part-time fee)
2) Determine method of Editing (On-Line, Off-Line, Format, CODEC, etc.)
3) Select your Film Lab & Lab Supervisor (talk through the process)
4) Select your Sound House for ADR/Foley/Mix (talk through the process)
5) Set up accounts (quesstimates) for Transfers, Digitizing, Color Correcting
6) Know who your Picture editor will be (Give him/her a 3-4 week schedule)
7) Know what format he/she knows how to edit
8) Order Editing equipment (if not with editor and necessary)
9) Set up Editing room (where is the edit to take place)
10) Who is the Assistant Editor (Editor will hire but you will pay)
11) Who is the Sound Editor (likely friend of Picture Editor)
12) Get list of Sound Effects from Sound editor & get bids
13) Where are Screening going to take place (likely Lab)
14) Know about Picture Edit, Sound Edit, ADR, Foley, Music & Mix
15) Schedule each of these steps according to your budget
A) Picture Edit: 3-4 weeks
B) Sound Edit: 2-3 Weeks
C) ADR: 2-3 Days
D) Foley: 2-3 Days
E) Music/Score: 3-4 Weeks (Flat Fee)
F) Mix (aka: Re-Recording Session): 5-6 Days
G) Lab Conversion: 2-3 Days
H) Color-Correction: 2-3 Days
I) Final Theatrical Digital Output: DCP
J) Are 35MM Film Prints needed.
I know this appears to be overwhelming but always remember you will have your Cinematographer (aka: DOP) available during the entire process, who during post (A) you are paying $100/Day to drop in and (B) who also thinks it's his/her movie, as much as you think it's yours, and wants it to be gorgeous so he/she will get many more DOP jobs. Thus, you will always have a "pro" in your corner who knows how to do this but it is your job to (A) Know the Budget and (B) know the steps and then (C) Schedule to keep the steps of Post-Production On-Budget .
