Get approval to do this as a school project, first. The school may require a release from the parents of the other students involved if they are going to appear on camera. This is doubly important if the film is to be submitted for a contest. Even if the film is not for school, you may need the release to show it publicly. Bonus: If the film is for a school project, you may be allowed "out" during the school day to film it.
Form a group and organize the different parts.
Write a script for each member of your group.
Run over the script a couple of times before actually filming to avoid mistakes whilst performing in front of the camera.
Make sure you have all the necessary equipment for filming (props, camera etc..) and you're ready to shoot! x)
Once you have everything ready you can start filming try to find a spot that goes with the theme of your project so that it looks more authentic.
Look over your films before finishing to make sure everything is done as planned.
Upload your films onto the computer so that you can start editing and adding special effects. You can do this on the movie making program on your computer, for example Windows Movie Maker. iMovie for Macs is easy to use and excellent and comes with the computer for free!
Once your videos are finished, you can choose an internet website (ex: YouTube or Daily Motion) where you can follow the easy steps for uploading onto the internet. You can link the page of your video to your school blog if you like so the whole class can view it easily. Beautiful!
