How do you know when your script is ready to film? How do you go about pitching it to a producer or production company? And when do you relinquish control over your story? We sat down with Elizabeth Berry, a talented writer and director, to walk through the entire process of producing a film from the perspective of the writer (with a couple of pitstops about directing), all the way from Pre-Pre-Production through Post-Production; from the initial concept to giving your story to the director to allowing the editor to shape your story for the audience. It’s not an easy job, but it can be incredibly rewarding!
