Re: Let me re-phrase that

Hi Steve

Thanks for the reply. The reason i thought about practising is, even though i will be hiring professionals for camera, sound and light as per your advice, i thought i should be knowing how the final product will transform into. So i thought of going through the process with Sound and Camera and catching up with editing so as to get a feel of things.

I completely agree with you that filmmaking is not only about running the Camera.

Can you please give me some advice as to how to learn or catch up with editing. I felt it may help me in making decisions about direction when I make a full length documentary with the help of hired professionals.

My concern is, To what extent should I be aware of all the aspects about filmmaking other then having a Script when i try to work with Camera and Sound Professionals.

Thanks for ur time,
Adi
