The Director

• Director: this person is responsible for the project and how it is executed. This person usually comes up with the genre and plot, hires the actors, arranges the location and directs the filming and editing process. This person’s input is what shapes and navigates the product to a particular standard. They control a film's artistic and dramatic aspects, while guiding the technical crew and actors.

• Their role is on-going, throughout the pre-production, post-production and during the film-making process, as they are required to constantly give their input.

The Cameraperson

• The cameraman is responsible for physically operating the camera and maintaining composition and camera angles throughout a given scene or shot. In narrative filmmaking, the camera operator will collaborate with the director, director of photography, actors and crew to make technical and creative decisions.

The Editor

• This person is vital to the outcome of the product. Once the footage has been filmed, it is entirely in this person’s hands to manipulate the footage to produce a continuous, and accurate interpretation of the director’s intention. The Editor is responsible for aligning and combining the shots and footage, mixing and matching to create a coherent and entertaining film. The film editor works with the raw footage, selecting shots and combining them into sequences to create a finished motion picture. Film editing is part of the post-production of the process.
