Pre-Production
This is all about getting ready for the film. Hiring, Funding, Concepts, Casting, getting kit, Storyboards, testing and Hiring Crew. This section has the largest selection of roles and is almost as important as the finished product itself. This involves scouting for locations, as well as prop design. It's very expansive, and often sifts into the other stages of production. Marketing nowadays also is present through every stage. Story also follows suit, as it is likely to change during production.
Production
The making and shooting of the film. This involves shooting, lighting, acting , make up and the rest of the other roles to be expected. It also involves some unexpected things,such as catering. You need to feed your crew, and keep them healthy. When shooting outside this is all especially important. Food, water, housing, security; keeping the crew alive, as well as actually making the film.
Post-Production
This is after the film has been made. This stage involves editing, marketing, PR, making a trailer, getting a real soundtrack, getting sound, and releasing the film, both general and the premier. Films with heavy CG stay in this phase for quite a while, but that is to be expected, although in the future this may not be the case.
