Producer Responsibilities
Producers have an overall control of a film’s production. They bring together the screenwriters, director, cast members, finances and the production team. Their primary responsibility is to use everyone’s skills and creative talents and to make them flourish to the best of their abilities. They are held mainly responsible for the success or failure of the finished film. The producer’s responsibilities expand on all four phases of production;
Research & development
This includes coming up with the foundation of a production, or selecting the screen play. Selecting the right screen writer and story edit team, raising finance and to supervise the development process.
Pre-production
This is everything done before producing the film. For example; location scouting, approving the script, finance and keeping an eye on the budget.

Post production and marketing
Producers are expected to stay communicated personally with the post production personal, including editors, composers and visual effects staff. They consult with the financial personal on the final print and are usually involved with the distribution entities in planning the market and distribution of the finished film.
Producers assistant responsibilities
Duties range from writing coverage on the scripts, drafting letters, making phone calls to the Clarence of copyright material, arranging business meetings and social events, as well as handling floats and unimportant cash. Their responsibilities are defined by the producers, on an almost daily basis. They must be well organised, have a good overview on the production process and able to rise to the challenge of having so many responsibilities at once. They are sometimes accorded an associate producer credit if he or she has carried out a significant producing function in the producer’s absence
and to stay in contact with all production partners investors and distributors.
Director Responsibilities

A camera operator works with digital, electronic and film cameras in multi and single camera operational conditions. They also produce pictures for directors by combining the use of technology and creative visual skills. The camera operator is usually supported
Types of activities included are:
- Assembling, preparing and setting up equipment (tripods, monitors, lighting) prior to filming.
- Offering advice on how to best shoot a scene, explaining the visual impact created by certain angles.
- Planning shot. (An explosion scene can only be done once as it is expensive, so planning needs to go into it)
- Finding solutions to practical or technical problems (if lighting effects your current shot, the cameraman will need to find a way to overturn it)
- Working quickly. The reason being is because timing is an important factor.
- Keeping up to date with filming methods and equipment.
Video Editor Responsibilities
Working closely with the director to meet his or her intensions of the final product. As digital technology grows day by day i.e. new computers film techniques software etc, the video editors will have to keep up with the new ways of editing Video editors have to be reliable as they are usually given deadlines, the ability to listen to others, excellent communication skills as they have to tell directors and keep them up to date daily about the progression.
The video editing process involves two stages:
1.) Offline editing
Initially the offline editor has to assemble all the raw footages, called rushes, in an offline edit suite. The equipment used relatively cheap compared to online editing. The work involves the following
- Inputting all the uncut rushes onto a computer where they are all stored in files.
- Sorting, re-arranging and creating a digital rough and fine cut of the programme to the director’s wishes.
- Drawing up an edit decision list (EDL) which is the visual ‘script’ for the next stage of the process which is the online edit.
2.) Online editing
The final stage involves an online editor, who is responsible for a more polished version of the product working according to the director’s wishes. As he/she is working with high cost equipment the editor needs to have high amounts of knowledge on how to use them, as they are counting on the editor to make a video of the finest quality.
