Sectors of films

• Film directors create an overall vision through which a film eventually becomes realized. Realizing this vision

includes overseeing the artistic and technical elements of film production, as well as directing the shooting

timetable and meeting deadlines. This entails organizing the film crew in such a way as to achieve his or her vision

of the film. This requires skills of group leadership, as well as the ability to maintain a singular focus even in the

stressful environment of a film set.

• Film producers prepare and then supervise the making of a film before presenting the product to a financing entity

or a film distributor. They might be employed by a film studio or be independent, yet either way they helm the

creative people as well as the accounting personnel

• Film editing is part of the creative post-production process of filmmaking. The term film editing is derived from

the traditional process of working with film, but now it increasingly involves the use of digital technology.

• The film editor works with the raw footage, selecting shots and combining them into sequences to create a finished

motion picture. Film editing is described as an art or skill, the only art that is unique to cinema, separating

filmmaking from other art forms that preceded it, although there are close parallels to the editing process in other

art forms like poetry or novel writing.

• Post-production is part of filmmaking, video production and photography process. It occurs in the making of

motion pictures, television programs, radio programs, advertising, audio recordings, photography, and digital art. It

is a term for all stages of production occurring after the actual end of shooting and/or recording the completed

work.

The TV industry

• They make daily programs for the genial public.

• Casting directorFor some major productions, the process of selecting actors for sometimes hundreds of parts may often require specialized staff. While the last word remains with the people in charge, artistic and production, a casting director or "CD" (and sometimes the casting associate) is in charge of most of the daily work involved in this process during pre-production. A casting director is sometimes assisted by a casting associate; productions with large numbers of extras may have their own extras casting director.

Director • The duties of a television director vary depending on whether the production is live (as in a television news

or sports television event) or recorded to film, video tape, digital video or video server (as in a dramatic or interview production).

• In both types of productions, the director is responsible for supervising the placement of professional video cameras (camera blocking), lighting equipment, microphones, and props.

location manager The location manager is a member of the TV crew responsible for the finding and securing locations to be used, obtaining all needed fire, police and other governmental permits, and coordinating the logistics involved for the production to successfully complete its necessary work. They are also the face of the production to the community and responsible for addressing the issues that may arise due to the production's impact on the community.

Screen writers Every screenplay and teleplay begins with an idea, and screenwriters use those ideas to write scripts, with the intention of selling them and having them produced. The majority of the time, a TV project gets initiated by a screenwriter and because they initiated the project, the writing assignment exclusively becomes his or hers. These are referred to as "exclusive" assignments or "pitched" assignments. Screenwriters who often pitch new projects, whether original or an adaptation, often do not have to worry about competing for assignments and are often more successful.

The Radio industry

• DJ

• A disc jockey (abbreviated D.J. or DJ) is a person who mixes recorded music for an audience. Originally, "disc" (sometimes spelled "disk", although this is now uncommon) referred to phonograph records, not the later compact discs. Today, the term includes all forms of music playback, no matter the medium.

• Radio producers

• A radio producer oversees the making of a radio show. There are two main types of producer. An audio or creative producer and a content producer. Audio producers create sounds and audio specifically, content producers oversee and orchestrate a radio show or feature. The content producer might organize music choices, guests, callers for talk radio or competitions, timings, and overall show content. They also may produce recorded content, from shows to radio commercials and commercial bumpers.

• News reporters

• Radio news is similar to television news but is transmitted through the medium of the radio. It is based on the audio aspect rather than the visual aspect. Sound bites are captured through various reporters and played back through the radio. News updates occur more often on the radio than on the television - usually about once or twice an hour.

• Ofcom is where people can make complaints about anything that has been said on radio or TV

print

• Print for a magazine • The publication, Print, A Quarterly Journal of the Graphic Arts, was a limited edition quarterly periodical

begun in 1940 and continued under different names up to the present day as Print, a bimonthly American magazine about visual culture and design.

•

• In its current format, Print documents and critiques commercial, social, and environmental design from every angle: the good (how New York’s public-school libraries are being reinvented through bold graphics), the bad (how Tylenol flubbed its disastrous ad campaign for suspicious hipsters), and the ugly (how Russia relies on Soviet symbolism to promote sausage and real estate).

•

• Print is a general-interest magazine, written by cultural reporters and critics who look at design in its social, political, and historical contexts. From newspapers and book covers to Web-based motion graphics, from corporate branding to indie-rock posters, from exhibitions to cars to monuments, Print shows its audience of designers, art directors, illustrators, photographers, educators, students, and enthusiasts of popular culture why our world looks the way it looks, and why the way it looks matters. Print underwent a complete redesign in 2005.

• Print for a newspaper• A newspaper is a periodical publication containing news regarding current events, informative articles,

diverse features, editorials, and advertising. It usually is printed on relatively inexpensive, low-grade paper such as newsprint. By 2007, there were 6,580 daily newspapers in the world selling 395 million copies a day. The late 2000s–early 2010s global recession, combined with the rapid growth of web-based alternatives, caused a serious decline in advertising and circulation, as many papers closed or sharply retrenched operations.

• General-interest newspapers typically publish stories on local and national political events and personalities, crime, business, entertainment, society and sports. Most traditional papers also feature an editorial page containing editorials written by an editor and columns that express the personal opinions of writers. The newspaper is typically funded by paid subscriptions and advertising.

• A wide variety of material has been published in newspapers, including editorial opinions, criticism, persuasion and op-eds; obituaries; entertainment features such as crosswords sudoku and horoscopes weather news and forecasts; advice, food and other columns; reviews of radio, movies, television, plays and restaurants; classified ads; display ads, radio and television listings, inserts from local merchants, editorial cartoons, gag cartoons and comic strips
