(To be considered when developing the storylines)
1) It should be realized that shoots will take place on different locations all around the world, by community members in separate crews, as we don't all live in the same country! Indeed, as we span hemispheres, taking in considerations the seasons of the year could be a lead of the story (by @lolo)
2) Low to no-budget (by @lolo)
3) High-end aesthetics (by @lolo)
4) A patch should be chosen before production (I vote something from @Driftwood as thanks for the collaboration video that got the ball rolling) and we can choose which framerates we'd prefer. (by @thepalalias)
5) Decide on a maximum time length for the film (by @driftwood)
(Restrictions on production if the script so requires)
1) Production teams have the option of either recording with a pre-determined, inexpensive setup (with chosen settings to ensure tested consistency) or leaving the audio blank so that the voiceover and score can run through the scene. (by @thepalalias), supported by:
2) option 1)We should decide standard things like film modes, color profiles, kind of illumination, isos, camera movement styles or the graders could go crazy :P (by @Elenion)
2) option 2)Leave it to the directors discretion, except for the cam mode and patches (24p must likely), but require that all footage from a particular director/team be shot with a consistent style (by @lolo/loloso)
