Logistics - deadlines

It is key to meet deadlines within film making and not meeting expectations of these deadlines means the film will fail.

Deadlines are very important, on the one hand time schedules have to be constant and play a prime aspect to logistics. However on the other hand depending on how large the project is; secure funding is more important in some respects.

In pre-production its the manager's responsibility to look over the production process and create the time schedules to insure that all sides of pre-production occur and happen on time. This is very important as if obstacles such as an actor/actress becoming ill or trouble with securing a location can extend planning and delay the filming process. The significant of budget can turn negative.

Consequences of not securing such elements such as location for example could delay a whole days worth of shooting which messes up with the deadlines and pushes back all scheduling.
