I make instructional videos on computer programming topics. But they have a real story to them and I am interested in the nuts and bolts professional film makers deal with...
I’ve got a general question about how scripts are used when making commercials, indie or hollywood films.
Do the actors follow the script exactly or do they just use it as a guide an improvise as they go?
I’ve had some people, who like me are not making commercial films, tell me that actors mostly improvise and just use the script as a guide. I’ve always thought that learning the script was always a big hurdle for actors and missing your lines would always cause a retake.
Thanks for any insight,
Dan
