Making a film takes a long time and is very hard work. Writing the story for the film
may take many weeks. Filming the story being acted - or shooting the film, as it is
called - often takes at least six months. Actors and cameramen work from very early
in the morning until late at night. Each scene has to be acted and reacted, filmed and
refilmed, until it is just right. Sometimes the same scene may have to be acted twenty
or thirty times.
The film studio is like a large factory, and the indoor stages are very big indeed.
Scenery of all kinds is made in the studio. Churches, houses, castles and forests are
all built of wood and cardboard. Several hundred people work together to make one
film. Some of these people are the actors and actresses. The director of the film,
however, is the most important person in a film studio. He decided how the scenes
should be filmed and how the actors should act.
Most people go to see a film because they know the film stars in it. Sometimes the
film may be very poor. It is best to choose a film made by a good director. Some
famous directors make their films very real. People feel that they themselves are
among the people in the film.
