Film Production with Lily Gladstone

Film school fundamentals in 15 episodes

This series, presented by Lily Gladstone, is pitched as an introductory college-level look at film production. Across 15 episodes it follows a film from screenplay to marketing and explains how the people on a set divide the work.

Who it is for

Aspiring filmmakers, students weighing a film course, and viewers who simply want to understand how movies get made will all find the material useful. The description does not assume any prior production experience.

Key takeaways

• The stages of production from writing to release and marketing
• How set departments and roles depend on one another
• Camera and lighting choices visible on screen and what happens behind them
• The equipment on a set and what each piece is for

Its strength is orientation: it gives a clear map of the industry before you specialize in any one role.
