Reasons for failing in Execution
Before we execute a film it is but obvious that
you plan and write your idea which later on is formed into a story right? But
as a film maker, a director especially you should get one thing clear into your
head that whatever you pre-visualize, cannot be always 'exactly' executed the
way you want it to be. However strong your content, the cinematic view or even
though the cast is doing their role perfectly, unless, and until their will be
a lack in the execution part the film will not connect your audience. Firstly,
as a film maker you should be very patient enough to observe your surroundings
making sure that whatever you want and imagined is present in front of you. At
a certain point of time frustration, and tiredness can take over the role of
being patient, and observing, but you should make your mind so strong that
you won't let that happen. Walking into reality, than expectations will also
help you from failing in the execution part. Sometimes there might be the
elements which is required not available or for any other reason at the present
day of the shoot your frame is not exactly the way you wanted to be. So over
here improvisation can take a role as it will help the execution part to look
even much better on-screen. When you write your screenplay you arrange your
thoughts of whatever you want your film to look like. But it is also very
essential that whatever you will write down will be a possible shot taken, as sometimes you stay into your imaginary world forgetting that the
reality is something else. For example, if you are making a short film with
less budget, and imagined that your character having an expensive car that is your
imaginary world, whereas in reality it is something else. So make sure that the
execution part should be done exactly the way the story is, and not look very
flat as well. There might be also faults in the way your frame should be arranged
which will result into failing your execution part as well. Make sure the
positions of every element in the frame is at the right place, and it shouldn't
look very awkward on screen also. Even if the story fails the executing of the
film will not be done at a proper manner. If you put two people together they
might have different perceptions about different subjects, and as a film maker
when you are showing what you have created about a particular subject it is
very vital for it to be cleared to the audience as at the end of the day the
film is successful just because of also executing it in the proper manner.
In the execution stage their are all the elements
of film making as it's the result of the film. So as a film maker try to show
what you want, as putting your imagination into real life is not very easy, but
also not impossible as well.
