Director - Job Duties | Film Direction Institutes In Mumbai

The director is the master storyteller of the movie with two primary jobs. The first is to read the script and develop a strong mental image of how the movie will look, sound, and feel.

The Second part of the job is to communicate his/her vision to the cast and crew during preproduction, production, and post production, helping direct the cast and crew’s artistic and technical skills.

The ideal director knows exactly what he wants, is able to communicate clearly and effectively, and maintains a positive, creative environment for everyone involved.

Directors are responsible for overseeing creative aspects of a film. They develop the vision for a film and carry out the vision, deciding how the film should look, in other words they make their vision come to life. They are responsible for turning the Script into a sequence of shots. Directors are responsible for deciding camera angles, lens effects and lighting with the help of the cinematographer, and set design with the production designer. They will often take part in hiring key crew members. They coordinate the actors' moves, or blocking.
