Things needed to start Tv show
Things You'll Need
- Digital video camera
- computer
- editing software
- actors
- sets or locations
- Purchase a high-end digital camera containing at least
720p, but preferably 1080i/p for high-resolution images. The camera should
have a fixed lens with a 10X or greater zoom or an interchangeable lens
system.
- Find actors and crew by searching online databases
geared toward film and television production. You also can place ads in
local newspapers, post flyers at colleges where students study acting and
production, as well as local high schools if you need younger actors.
- Scout out locations to film your TV show. You can check
out coffee shops, movie theaters and even some malls make allowances for
TV shoots. You will need to gain permission to film at any location you
choose from its management, and obtain any relevant permits from the city.
- Edit your newly shot footage using an advanced editing
program such as Corel VideoStudio Pro X4. As of 2011, this program allows
for High Definition image editing with both DVD and Blu-Ray burning. You
need to decide what you require of your editing software and what falls
within your budget range.
- Upload your TV show to an online source such as YouTube
or COVERITLIVE. Create an account with the site you choose, and upload
your video according to instructions and guidelines of the website. If you
decide to go with public access TV, contact your local provider and and
submit a proposal for your show.
Tips & Warnings
- Hire a screenwriter if you don't feel confident about
writing an engaging script yourself.
- Find cast and crew that have a passion for your project
to ensure the best possible results.
- Don't spend more than you have to on editing software
or equipment.
- Do not film in locations where you don't have
permission to shoot.
- Do not persist in gaining permission if you have
already received word from management that you are not allowed to film in
any given location.
- Be careful with copyright infringement when adding
titles, music or songs to your TV show.
