What does preproduction include when discussing a movie shoot?
The production of a movie is the phase of filming the action in a studio or on location. All the work that goes into preparing for that, such as scriptwriting, building sets if needed, selecting locations if needed, hiring talent (not just actors) and other workers is called pre-production. Post-production is what you do with the film, such as editing and scoring. after you have put everything you want on film. In the modern digital age, it can get more complicated than that.
