The Five Phases of Work

[Rodney]

Here's a brief but good article from the Animated Spirit Blog:

Overview:

Phase One: Beginnings

Phase Two: Preparation and Planning

Phase Three: Doing the work

Phase Four: Struggle

Phase Five: Completion

 

This process is not unlike any good story-telling worth being told.

I can easily see overlap between the phases that suggests similarity between the three (and often four) act structures of theater/film production.

 

 

And (because things in collections of 5s seem to be important) don't forget to read James Chiang's five part review of the book 'Five Cs of Cinematography'. It's very well worth the look.
