Planning: Production Roles - Ms. Begum

Introduction

In film industry different people are assigned different jobs during the production of a single film, this is why the credits are so long at the end of the film because it has to go through all the names of the people who helped make the film to give credit to them.

The different roles and definitions to them (include images)

Producer - The producers are the company logo that you see at the beginning of the film they are the ones that give the director the film budget to create the film after they view the script.

Director - The director is the one who created the basic storyline of the film and essentially it's their project.

Lighting operator - The lighting operator is the one that decides what lighting is best for each scene in the film and not one light that is on set has not been planned every light you would see in that film was placed there by the lighting operator in order to create affect and bring the scene to life.

Location manager - The location manager is the one who finds the right location in order to shoot certain scenes in a film they must know exactly what the storyboarders and directors are looking for in the scene then theymust go out and find possible locations for the scene to take place. 

Make-Up artist - The make up artist the one in charge of all the actors in the film whether they are big names or the fillers.

Story board organiser - The story board organiser breaks the whole story down into scenes into full detail. Before they shoot a scene it is storyboarded and everything that happens in the scene is planned from the sound effects to the actions of the characters, they must work closely with the director and co-script workers also to tailor the scene to the original script.

Editor - The job of an editor is one of the hardest jobs in the film because they can be given hundreds of hours of uncut original footage and they then have to make cuts and edits within the film and cut down the view time to something like 1-3 hours long without changing the entire outlook of the film but not drag the film on long enough to lose the interest of the viewers. 

Sound Technician - The sound technician is the one who creates any sound effects in the film whether it be running noises or the sound of someone being stabbed the sound technician may polish these sound effectsd and make them more louder and with more base inorder to create a better effect on the viewers.

Conclude, how has this been beneficial?
This has been beneficial because this has evened out the amount of work that each person has to do and its not so we actually have a structure and an idea of what each person has to do in terms of what role each of us have to play. This would also make the amount of work each of us do a fair distribution.
