What is Post Production?

This session will talk about the workflow within Post Production, explaining about picture, sound and music post production workflows. This will be a great overview for anyone who knows a little bit about one aspect of Post, but not all, or for complete beginners.

Who is the Post Supervisor?

This session is a dive into a little bit of history of how the role came about, the main aspects of the role and how it fits into the workflow of the high end TV show or film, including a short section on the politics.

What does the Post Supervisor do?

We will explain how the Post Supervisor manages post production & where they sit amongst the facilities & crew. We also share some of the different documents that would be expected to be produced within Post.

Post Production Supervisors are instrumental in managing the post process, ensuring there is a clear channel of communication between the director, producer and all post crew and facilities. These roles include picture, sound and music editorial, re-recording mixers, DI colourists and picture post, VFX, composers, music supervisors and title companies. The post supervisor is responsible for the budget, liaising closely with the accountant, and for creating the post schedule, making sure the production meets its deadlines.

These upcoming free taster events are a chance to learn more about Post Production Supervision, with the sessions covering the role of post-production supervisor in the post-production process of a film or high-end television show, the basic workflow for post-production, and the basics of delivery for post production.

Whether you are interested in pursuing a career in post-production supervision or want to expand your knowledge in this exciting area, these complimentary sessions are not to be missed. Places are limited and in high demand!
