we learnt about different parts of the crew like,director, producer,
production manager,assistant director and camera man and the things they do.Also, about how we plan our shooting days like we can put the crews numbers on the bottom of a timetable/script in case of emergency and on how we can plan so that the production management would not need to run all over the place and waste their energy.
