POST-PRODUCTION

'Post-production' occurs in the making of audio recordings, films/movies, photography and digital art, videos and television programs. It is the general term for all stages of production occurring after the actual recording and ending with the completed work.
Post-production is in fact many different processes grouped under one name. These typically include:


★ Editing the picture / TV program

★ Editing the soundtrack.

★ Writing and recording the soundtrack music.

★ Adding visual special effects - mainly computer generated imagery (CGI) and digital copy from which release prints will be made (although this may be made obsolete soon by digital cinema technologies).
Typically, the post-production phase of creating a film takes longer than the actual shooting of the film, and can take several months to complete.
Other film production stages include (very broadly) - financing, pre-production, writing the screenplay, rewriting the screenplay (repeat), and the actual shooting.
