Is there a video that explain the different stages of video game production, infancy, pre production, alpha, beta ect. ect.....?

Infancy isn't really a set term. 

Pre-production: Where you are designing the game. You are creating prototypes, figuring out the story, what the game world will look like.

Production: Where you are actually putting your plans into development. You're actually building the levels, putting all the animations together. This is where you are generally actually putting the game together.

Post-production: after the game launches, and you're doing bug fixes and making post release content. 

Alpha: A version of the game that is feature complete. All the gameplay is complete, but the levels aren't built.

Beta: A version of the game that is feature complete and asset complete. Basically all the levels are built and all the gameplay features are implemented, but it might still be buggy.
