What is the director's job?

What is a director?

Literally: edit. Director, director. A director is an editor and a director, but he should be a director at work. First, the director function is performed to determine the shooting content, and then the editing function is performed for post-processing.

In the column group, the director is the second power figure after the producer, and also the first soul figure of the whole film. Producers are mainly responsible for the management of funds and personnel. Generally speaking, they don't participate in the creation, but they have the right to supervise and review, which can decide the life and death of the film. Whether it is broadcast or not is often the producer's decision.

2. Director, what's the main job?

Many people who study choreography are often confused: how can I learn everything and end up learning nothing well!

That's right. The director studied miscellaneous things. As an excellent director, you should not only understand literature, write an outline and write an explanation. I also need to know about photography, lighting, post-production, and more importantly, communication and communication. Often the communication with the interviewee and relevant personnel will ultimately affect the quality of the film.

When I was in CCTV, the specific workflow was as follows:

A. first determine the topic, that is, what to shoot, write a shooting outline and submit it to the editor-in-chief and producer for review. If it passes, contact the unit and the person being photographed.

B. take the camera and assistant to the shooting location. The pre-shooting location is shooting and interview, with a 30-minute column, and the pre-shooting generally does not exceed 15 days.

C. enter the computer room for post-editing. During this period, look at the material, draw the structure, and complete the editing of the script (including explanations and interviews).

D. Editor-in-chief, producer reviews, and then Taiwan Province leaders review. Correct any problems. If there is a typo, deduct the money. If it is not stored for broadcast.

E. Lead the money according to the ratings, please take photos and wait for others to eat (very important).

3. How can I become a good director?

Although I am not a director with high ratings, my films are highly recognized by professionals.

I think the most important factor to be a good director is experience. Often the more things you experience, the more profound things you make. I remember a very famous director saying, "The theme is eventualized, the events are personalized, and the characters are fated." If you can do this, movies will often look good, but how can you see the fate of the characters? Character determines fate. But how can you tell the character? The "People" column of CCTV 10 is still in place in the excavation of personality.

I once asked the head of a group in their column this question. He said: "In fact, TV is Jianghu. We old people have been fighting in the rivers and lakes for more than ten years or even years. No one has seen it, and no one has experienced anything. "

Therefore, directors who can make thoughtful films are often experienced directors.

Some people will say, I am young, can't I make a good movie? You can't say that either. I think you can make a good film as long as you are familiar with the subject matter and the content you like, and as long as you have a unique point of view.

4. Advice for beginners.

A. Film is not a person's art, it is the crystallization of collective wisdom.

B. The mark of judging a movie is often: thought >; Content > picture > = sound

C. not all leaders know TV. You should learn to compromise while sticking to your principles.

D. Being a film director, you can't make a good film in one day. It needs too much persistence, too much concession, too much persistence and too much negation. . . . . There's too much to learn, too much. . . . . .
