A Screenplay comes first, this is a general idea of how the creators of the movie want it to look and how they think it should look in general this is of course changed and altered throughout production and is almost never the exact same as the film when it's finished.
Around the same time as the screenplay, a storyboard should be drawn up, this is a set of frames for the entire film which is used during filming as a guideline that is stuck to quite closely. A storyboard features sketched versions of how the producers want the film to look as well as how they want the camera to move and when they want it to move.
After the storyboard and the screenplay is finished, the production of the film can start, this includes making props and costumes, and then moving on to actually filming the video. this is the second most time consuming part of the entire production, however that is only if it is done efficiently and the storyboard and screenplay are used effectively, otherwise it is the most time consuming part, which usually costs more money and can even force a production over budget, which is even worse a thing as it can then do a lot of damage to the production costs that already exist and make them even higher.
Finally, once all filming is wrapped and over, the post production and editing can start. editing should take up the most time in film production as there are many things to consider such as match on action and continuity. not only this but a trailer and other adverts need to be made for the production (this only usually applies to films and TV productions- Music Videos don't usually have trailers).
When all of the above is finished and the final film is ready, it can be released to the public.
