Abstract

This paper thoroughly examines the production of the thesis film, The Toaster That Toasted The Golden Toast. Each area of the film's production is carefully dissected, including the writing, production design, cinematography, editing, sound, technology, workflow, and direction. Each of these areas contains a myriad of decisions that were made in effort to fulfill the overall vision of the movie as being a genuinely funny action film produced with a high production value, and these decisions are discussed at length. Documented feedback from test audiences is also reviewed in an attempt to objectively critique the final film
