Finding A Production Company

By Rudy Mauritzio


Couple of months ago a friend told me he wanted to spend some funds he had saved and raised in producing a movie. The idea was brilliant and I bid him well. Several months back, he gave me the Cd to watch and when I was through, I was disappointed. No I wasn't expecting Hollywood but this was not anything close to the wood talk more of the Holly. He learnt the hard way; you are not a professional so talk to a production company.

A production company is as the name goes an institution professionally concerned with fabricating, producing, making, creating, bringing into being, generating and some cases funding a product. This product can range from being a material, a movie, music, an album any object at all. People who ignore talking with the professionals get the result of always being sorry. You spend so much that you are embarrassed and ashamed at your product as well as discouraged at the thought of going ahead to purse your dream.

If you've ever wondered what exactly a production company is, let's make a simple definition: if there weren't for production companies, there wouldn't be movies. Okay, maybe this definition is a bit too radical, but the list of their services includes many important things when it comes to production of some material. For example, there is the post production, which includes everything after the material has been shot, and this is one of the main tasks of production companies.

Getting the right production company is like a signature, some branding that opens doors one might never have gotten at that time. It is akin to climbing on Daddy's shoulders in other to see through the crowd. These guys know what your target audience is after and you can take advantage of this knowledge to endear yourself to them even though you are fresh on the scene. Experience is vital for success today and what better way than for a rookie to leverage on experience?

Production is a really long process and takes a lot of time, people and money. There is the process of production and of post production, but there are many things people should do before the production begins, and this period is called pre-production. A production company is to set up the base of production (physically), and all the offices, in case you're filming away from home. It is up to them to make everything impeccable, so that all the processes after that would go smoothly and according to plan.

Even though working at a production company means that you have a lot to do with the shooting , pre or post production, obtaining licenses and so on, it doesn't necessarily have to include direct involvement in the project. There lovely people who will take care of everyone when it comes to food, because working in the production industry is exhausting and tasty treats are always welcome. Basically, whatever you need before, during or after the set, a good production company will provide.
