To talk about an action that will have been completed by a certain point in the future, use the futuro anteriore (future perfect tense).
Forming the Future Perfect
Form the futuro anteriore with the future tense of the auxiliary verb (avere or essere) plus the past participle. The rules for choosing the auxiliary and agreeing the past participle are the same as in the passato prossimo.
| The assistant will have prepared the background. | L'assistente avrà preparato lo sfondo. |
| I will have set the camera and chosen the lens. | Avrò impostato la fotocamera e scelto la lente. |
Working with Deadlines
You will often use time markers like domani mattina (tomorrow morning) or a mezzogiorno (at noon) to establish when an action will be finished.
| Tomorrow morning, the assistant will have moved the spotlight behind the background. | Domani mattina, l'assistente avrà spostato il faro dietro lo sfondo. |
| At noon, we will have changed the lens and completed the shot. | A mezzogiorno, avremo cambiato la lente e completato lo scatto. |
Asking Questions
You can also use this tense to ask when tasks will be completed. Notice how the auxiliary verb changes to match the subject.
| When will you have completed the lighting for the shot? | Quando avrai completato l'illuminazione per lo scatto? |
| Will you all have set the lighting for the next pose? | Avrete impostato l'illuminazione per la prossima posa? |
