This includes the showrunner, who is responsible for overseeing the overall creative vision of the series, as well as the directors, writers, and producers. The team works together to develop the storyline, characters, and tone of the show. Next, the production team starts to plan out the logistics of filming. This involves securing filming locations, hiring crew members, and acquiring any necessary equipment. The production team also creates a shooting schedule, which maps out when and where each scene will be filmed. During pre-production, the casting process also takes place. This is where actors are chosen to play the various roles in the series. The casting director works closely with the showrunner to find the right talent that fits the vision for each character. Another important aspect of pre-production is creating the visual look of the show.
