Production Management is an integral part of the production of any audio-visual program. This course introduces students to the many facets of the 鈥減roduction office鈥� and the pivotal roles of a Producer and Production Manager in the creation of film and television project. Students engage in the theoretical underpinning of the production management processes and how they relate to the other production departments. Students also engage with and apply each element of production management, which are essential to the overall degree program.


FSP1005 Production Management is a foundation course in the Film programme designed to transition beginning filmmakers into a skillset that is fundamental to all media productions. The skills learnt in this course will be utilised in the creation of productions in other FSP courses.

This course will explore the management skills needed for the four areas of production management: pre-production, production, post-production and distribution stages of a media production. Students will engage with and apply industry standards to the most efficient and economical way to organise their productions, while focusing on the `Macro' of media business management and the `micro' of making day-to-day production decisions to ensure that projects proceed smoothly. All aspects of pre-production will be examined including identifying and generating story idea, proposal development, project pitching, production budget, scheduling, legal, insurance, the break-down of scripts into shot lists and storyboards and time management. Through case studies, students will journey through the production process, the post-production phase and finally the distribution of the production. Students will complete a series of authentic assessment tasks based on industry practice in film making that reflect industry aligned skills and current knowledge.
