Production: The Director's RoleTelevision, Film & Video Careers
So.....
You want to be a director.
Do you know what a director actually does?
If you have read any of the articles so far, you know that most of the creativeness has already been done by the production stage. The director may or may not have been involved near the end of the pre-production stage. Maybe the director is the producer. It just depends.
Yes. Directors and actors have essential creative input during the production stage. They use these skills to further enhance the overall project, and let's not forget about post-production. But that's getting ahead of our selves. During the production stage, a director has creative involvement, but also manages the production.
What skills
does a director need? The obvious skills are creativeness and vision. Just keep
in mind that directors also need skills in organization, management, quick
decisiveness, abstract and analytical thinking, and people skills to complete
their assignment. It's a lot more than working with actors, setting up the (already planned) scene and saying "Action!" These articles will give you a real-world example of what a director does. All directors do similar things, whether in film or television. Any director understands they have only during the production stage to get the best creative output from everyone involved, and do it in a methodically planned process.
