Significance Of Post-Production In Filmmaking


To every Pre-Production, there is a production and to every production, there is a Post-Production.



The word ‘importance’ implies that significance or relevance of something important.

After pre-production and production of any film, there is a post-production of a film.

When we are talking about a movie or a TV show, the role of an editor is crucial in the contribution of the film.


However, the role of an editor is, in any shape, overlooked.

What happens in Hollywood is unless you are an actor or director, you are almost certainly not getting the recognition you deserve.

But this blog is about to shed some light on the significance of the people who always remains behind the screens and work or hours on end.

They are the ones who match eye lines, colour grading or adding in explosions.

Thanks to those people who work hard to make the ultimate product fruitful and productive.

Thank you guys you are truly awesome.

There are various processes that lie in the Post-Production techniques of a film.

Each of this process is strenuous; however, the outcomes for each step can generate or break your end result.

Here in this blog, we are going to discuss the post-production procedures that are accomplished during the post-production of a film.

MAAC Kolkata is presenting to you the diverse processes in post-production like vision cutting, colour grading, sound editing, VFX and their aspects in post-production.

Maya Academy of Advanced Cinematics, Kolkata proffers you a handful of effective training courses on Animation, Visual Effects, Multimedia, Filmmaking, Digital Film Making, Graphics Designing and Web Designing with effective training and teaching in the related areas.

So let’s take a look at the examples of what each task involves.

Post-Production -Animation Institute Kolkata

For instance, you can have a look at the re-edit of the blockbuster Disney movie, ‘Frozen’.

Everyone is aware of what the film is about.

However, in this snip, it’s been superbly rebuilt to look like a clip for a horror movie.

Now, this is time to pay attention to the sound design in this clip.

Subsequently, the melody and jingle in the trailer highly effect on the emotion reduced.

Colour shading is also done in this video which features the significance of its role in manipulating the look of the film.



As a result, the general outlook of the film including the feel is not anymore Disney, but a sinister horror film.

Another aspect of the post-production is, some films can change less than others, but the latency for change can be huge.

Another example that can be given is the film ‘Annie Hall’.

The film is to be rumoured to have been re-written in editing.

Sometimes editing can also be done for the purpose of highlighting the actor’s performance.

Editing is also done to focus some characters’ special performance.



The editing is a vital part of the film as it helps to save a film from a lackluster scene.

There are certain low cost-budget films that utilize lots of long takes with just a few retakes.

This type of films is more prone to mistakes and they require effective editing.

They are more immune to artistic shifts in editing; however, the global editing is the heart of post-production.

Colour Grading




Colour grading can be defined as the job of making video streams go perfectly from shot to shot.

You might be wondering that what this colour grading is.

Does it carry any significance?

Yes, it is significant in a film post-production.



The effect a colourist can have on a look of the film is unparalleled.

It can give any shade to a movie by re-editing a happy go lucky clip to a dark and sinister one.



Most movies utilize shading preparing to enhance the tone of the caught pictures and keep up consistency starting with one shot then onto the next.

Others utilize shading adjustment in a publication limit.



The principal renowned film to make broad utilization of colour shading amendment was Oh Brother Where Art Thou, which transformed lavish scenes into yellow fields of exemplary Americana.

Sound Mixing and Design



Sound, as told before is the most important part of any film.

Not just is sound apparently the essential piece of achieving a feeling of authenticity, yet it can totally control the tone of a film by mounding the feeling of expression in the viewers.

However, there is a problem with soundtrack and outline.

The noticeable prominence of a soundtrack changes definitely from one film to another.

The issue lies in the fact that the gathering of people/audience may have the possibility of tuning out if your sound is not up to the par.



This is the step of post-production where all the pieces assemble together.

Editing is considered as a call and response with the script, thus shaping a film into a digestible format.

Sound or melodies have the capability to influence the tone of a film.

It is the key to a film as it moulds your feeling during a scene.

Visual Effects or VFX


During the recent years, most films utilize Visual Effects to at least some limit.

You may ask how?

My answer is it is the way through which the background objects can be diverted and also the captured sky can be edited and made more comprehensive, adding the point of interest to the sky.

A few movies utilize Visual Effects or VFX to an extraordinary degree.

If you are wise enough to analyze the rule of VFX, then you will start utilizing VFX for the same.

The group of onlookers has an undeniably low resistance for low-quality VFX, all the more frequently irritated by “self-evident” VFX than excited by astounding creatures and activity successions.


Visual Effects or VFX plays a very significant role in the completed result of a film.

As a result, much is finished with the help of VFX.

In the recent era, a number of films are crossing the budget of millions, it had become essential to take the assistance of Visual Effects to make the production cost economical.

The work these artists or indeed craftsmen do is amazing and you can have no clue how they do it.

So come on you can also be a part of such movie such experience just by one click.

Every year, just before the ANNUAL PICNIC, our mentors declare the notice of the DFM contest and the students get ready for their respective portions.

All the students are requested to make a team and make their own line-ups, production, storyline and shooting process.

At the initial stage, they feel quite nervous about the dos and don’ts.

However, with the course of time, they are given suggestions as well as assistance from the institutes’ part in order to accomplish their works.

After getting enough data and criteria from the centres each team is allotted to one of our specific faculty supervising the entire production.

Time is allotted to all teams so that they can complete their works within a certain time frame.

This deadline is given so as to prepare the students for the fashion of encountering the upcoming multifaceted deadlines in their career.


Digital Film Making Pre-Production

All the teams decide their own team members and they set up themselves responsible for various roles in the film.

They determine among themselves the director, cinematography, the name of the production, the story play, concept, castings, and the scripts.

Subsequently, the scripting is written and one of the students takes the responsibility.


The Digital Film Making Scenario

After all the above-stated actions, the students begin their shooting process.

During their shooting process, our faculty members stood by them so that they face no major difficulty during shooting.

All the sequences are well crafted and well-organized as per the concept and script of the play.

To this, comes the Post-production process.

In this post-production procedure, the team conducted the dubbing, recording, background music implementation process and all other post-work effects creating tasks.

These tasks comprise of the editing and VFX techniques, however, the students make hard to perform those but they did well.


Digital Film Making 2018

In this year, both the Chowringhee and Rashbehari centres participated and showed their best.

But, as you know, only three of the total films will be recognized and honored with the DFM awards, so it was indeed a tough competition.

Even the mentor jury members felt it difficult to select the winner and the runner-ups among them.

After a prolonged discussion and watching session, the mentors are finally ready to declare the winners.

And there was no other special day to announce the winners than the ANNUAL PICNIC DAY.

The prizes were hosted on the day that was decided.

The moment of revelation was near after the events in the picnic and the heart of all students stood still making “Lubb” “Dubb” in a succession as the director of MAAC Kolkata was about to announce the name of the winner.

Yes, it was out and Mr Naveen Choudhary declared “Gondo Murkher Certificate” stood the winner of the DFM contest.

The team applauded, jumped into air merrily.

This particular moment is the joy of our MAAC Kolkata.

This was accompanied by the two runner-up trophies- Aalik the first runner-up and Tumi_Robe Nirobe the second runner-up.



Story play

The film Gondo Murkher Certificate is indeed a marvel of the team and the concept was inspirational.

The story of the film revolves around an innocent, foolish boy who is unaware of the thinking of the entire social world, is moving forward in his life and his sole companion is foolishness.



In the whole succession, he is shown as a dumb stupid young college-goer who is indifferent to the other fellows of his class, is getting backstabbed from his mates.

However, the disrespect he is getting from others does not change him from his originality.

Moreover, his own parents are dishonoring and even saying to turn him out of the house owing to his failure in the exams.

Although such disrespectful attitude never moved this guy to take any illegal steps in life.

The film started with the scene where the guy is standing below the fan holding a cloth in his hand.

Immediately just after watching the opening scene, one comprehends a picture of suicide, but at the ending scene, the truth reveals.

Actually, we, the audience are the original fools who took him as a suicide committer, the scene was basically the boy was trying to wash the fan blades to avoid it remain unclean.

Isn’t it interesting?

Yes, it is.


Coming to the 1st runner-up, Aalik has a spiritual appeal to the audience.

The story starts with a girl in a hospital, trying to portray that she met an accident.

From this succession comes to the progression of the story where she has forgotten her pre-accident life and is living a post-accident life.

She feels attached to the caretaker which she thinks she has him all the time caring her.

Then a day comes when she feels some sort of reflection from the past life and visualizes the caretaker (who wanted her to memorize the pre-incident life she led) as her husband.



At a stretch, she remembers all the moments she spent with the caretaker as her wife before the accident and suddenly she realizes that he, on that accident, lost his life.

And it was a total time frame of hallucination that she led during the post-accidental life.

She recognizes her love, her beloved husband who used to take care of her and she missed those days.

A scene is shown where she wrote her entire experience until then and prays to regain the post-incident memory loss disease so that she remains hallucinating her husband and stay with him forever.

With this spiritual film comes the 2nd runner-up Tumi_Robe Nirobe.

The film indeed touched the heart; it depicted the mother-son relationship before the death of the mother and after it.



How a son feels emotional on the Valentine’s Day and how the viewers mistook him buying flowers for her girlfriend.

Actually, he was buying flowers for her mother on the precious lovely day of St Valentine.

Such a mind-blowing concept reveals the depth of the story writer.


The play revolves around a son, how he behaved with her mother during the presence of his mother and how he realized his mistakes during the absence of his mother.

All these films are from the MAAC Chowringhee centre.

These films were accompanied with other relevant films like Autobiography of a Killer, Daridrata, Letter, Punoray, Remedy, Sheep lost shape, Sunshine Disparity, The Canvass, The Silent Warrior, UNWANTED, I SEE YOU, Gruselig, Don’t do it and many more.
