The film industry is organised into three main stages. The first stage of a film is the production, this is where .
an idea is thought up, normally by a writer, director or a producer. A script is produced and the budget of .
the film is estimated for potential investors to see if they will financially back the film. For the film to be .
invested in, the film has to make 2.5 times its total cost for the film to be called a success. The next thing .
that has to be done is the producer to hire a director for the movie. After a director has been chosen the .
script is broken into scenes and a storyboard is produced. When this is done, there is a screening for the .
potential cast members of the movie. The cast of a movie is specially chosen, so that the film can be .
