Want to know how to plan a short film from start to finish? In this step-by-step pre-production guide, I’ll walk you through everything you need to organize before filming—from breaking down your script to creating your shot list and schedule.

Planning your short film is the key to a smooth shoot—and in this video, I’m sharing the exact process I use on every project, whether I’m working solo or with a small crew. You’ll learn how to build a visual treatment, prep locations, plan your gear, and avoid common mistakes most beginner filmmakers make.

I’ll also show you a great tool called Frame Set that helps you build beautiful video treatments using real cinematic reference frames. It’s perfect for clarifying your visual style early on.
