 Director

A director is a person who determines the creative vision of a feature film, television show, play, short film, or other production. They have complete artistic control of a project.08-Nov-2020


The film director gives direction to the cast and crew and creates an overall vision through which a film eventually becomes realized or noticed. Directors need to be able to mediate differences in creative visions and stay within the budget.

There are many pathways to becoming a film director. Some film directors started as screenwriters, cinematographers, producers, film editors or actors. Other film directors have attended a film school. Directors use different approaches. Some outline a general plotline and let the actors improvise dialogue, while others control every aspect and demand that the actors and crew follow instructions precisely. Some directors also write their own screenplays or collaborate on screenplays with long-standing writing partners. Some directors edit or appear in their films or compose the music score for their films.[3]

What a film direction should  know

In order to coordinate the talents of what can be a large number of people working together to create a film, directors must develop strong leadership, management, and communication skills. Film directors also use their creative skills to bring a film script to life.

Do director write scripts

The Screenwriter writes the film's script. Screenwriters may also come up with the film's concept or story, although often screenwriters are hired to write a script based the producer or director's concept or story. The Director manages the shooting of the film script, including staging scenes and directing act
