You finished your script and you are finally ready to make your film but you are not sure how to go about doing everything. You know you have to hire a crew but how do you go about finding crew and how do you know you are hiring the right people?
​
You know you need a shot list but do you make the shot list or should your cinematographer? What is a line producer or production coordinator and do you need one or both if you are making a short or is that just for features?
