Ultimately, the director is a creative professional who is responsible for ensuring that all the moving parts of a film’s production culminate in a polished final product.Cinematographer
Cinematographers operate cameras while filming movies. This includes manipulating cameras so they can record action from different angles, using various cameras, including portable or immobile and framing. They can also operate mechanical controls to manipulate lighting, depth, clarity and exposure. Directors typically cue these professionals on when to start and stop filming.

Cleaning and proper handling of cameras and equipment is typically the cinematographer’s responsibility. Before filming begins, cinematographers can check that all equipment is working properly and make repairs as needed.Producer
Producers handle the business matters associated with creating films. They can approve creative and technical decisions, secure funding and choose scripts. Administrative duties, such as script distribution, preparing reports and securing set locations, are some of the producer’s responsibilities.
