Commentary
Since we define a Cinematographic Work as the sum of events that have led to the creation of a moving image, it may not be obvious why there should also be a production event, modelled as separate entity.
Initially, the motivation for this event type came from the fact that filming locations, if known, are often considered important. Simply defining the filming location as a property of the work would not allow for separation of individual events known by place and date, at least not in machine-accessible form.
Further use cases include casting events, which are sometimes also known by date and location. Other production events may include the acquisition or rental of noteworthy property or accessories for the purpose of making the film.
