In post, its usually a month for editing, a month for sound, a month for cc and final mix, but of course if there are any visual effects that will add quite a bit of time. A distribution deal is usually reached before the film starts shooting and is considered pre-production.<br><b>References : </b><br> For pre-production, if you start counting from the moment the writer starts the script to the 1st day of principal photography- probably the average for a feature film is 5-10 years, some longer, some less.
