Job Roles

These are the job roles that we have allocated to each member of our group:

Producer: a producer is a person or company responsible for the financial and managerial aspects of the making of a film or broadcast. They are also the person that normally writes the script and coordinates all the different roles. We have allocated the main producer role to Amy because she is most organised however all members of the group will be involved with the writing of the script so that we can all express our creativity.

Director: a director is a person that supervises the actors and other staff involved in a production and tells them what they need to do. We are allocating the role of the director to Laura because she is the most confident, this is important as she will be telling the actors what to do. She also studies drama so she knows how to stage things correctly.

Camera Operator: a camera operator is a person that films the production. They are in control of recording the footage, moving the camera and taking different shots of the actors. We have allocated this job to Katherine because she was the best with the camera, she also has a steady hand which is good for when she wants to use different shots.

Lighting/Sound: this is a person that operates the light and sound in a production. They hold the microphone near the actors and change the lighting to fit the scene. We have allocated this role to Amy because she has most experience with using a microphone as she has studied media previously and because Katherine will be the camera operator and Laura will be directing, they won’t be able to do the lighting so Amy will be in charge of this.

Editor: the editor is the person that edits the footage that the camera operator has taken. They put it all together and get rid of any bad footage to make the production look smooth and worth watching. All members of the group with participate with the editing because it’s a long process and it gives us all an opportunity to have an input on what looks best.
