Production

The shooting of the film 

 Involves a camera crew, lighting, sound, directorial (including first assistant directors, second assistant director as well as the director) runners, location crew, security, drivers, stunt crew, actors, 'talent', caterers, rushes runners. producers and line producers not necessarily on set - often stay behind and coordinate from the production office.

Low budget films might be shot over a period of five to six weeks. sometimes this will involve 18 hour days, often six days a week. bigger budget films will take much longer to film (75-120 days), and may require multiple film crews in multiple different locations


Post production
Principally involves editing and sound

The editing suite was, at one time known as the cutting room, because film reels had to be literally cut and spliced together

more often than not achieved digitally now, often on premiere pro, avid suites or macs

Also involves sound design, with dubbing mixers and foley artists. could also involve special effects, depending on the film. editors cut films together, grade them, add filters etc.
