Very few people know that their favorite films are not as easy to make as they would think. Between the time it takes to write the screenplay to when it actually arrives on the screen, it can take years, and an investment of more than enough time and money to make it worthwhile. Making a movie is not an easy business, but it’s also fascinating to know the different stages that it goes through while making a film.

The process

First, you have to have a great concept that you know will appeal to a wide audience. The original idea by the screenwriter or creator goes through multiple changes over a long period ensuring it will work. It’s important to come up with an idea that you know will be interesting, and that people will want to go and see it on the big screen, so you aren’t spending tons of money that could potentially be lost—especially since millions of dollars usually go into making a movie. You also need to make sure that you have a great writer working on the screenplay. A movie cannot be good without quality writing.

Then the script will go out to several movie production companies until one agrees to make the movie. They will hire actors and put together a reasonable budget for the movie so it can be made. It’s important to have a good idea of how much you are going to spend. Once the cast and crew are hired, you can move forward and begin actually making the movie.
