Different Roles
A films production is made up of a variety of important roles.
A producer's job is to manage a films production and
everyone involved, while also allocating the funding. A
director's role is to manage the shooting and assembly of a
film's production, and ultimately are at the core of the film's
production.
My Role - Editing
The role I am most interested in in the film making industry
would have to be editing. In terms of filmmaking editing is
incredibly important and has been around almost since the
start of film making with the first Jumpcut being accidentally
created in 1896 by Georges Méliès. Since then, editing has
evolved alongside filmmaking, editors realise they could do
so much more and popularised things like montages and
unique transitions in films. The Jumpcut is the most
important tool an editor has and is probably what they use
the most, but it is also their responsibility to sync up things
like sound effects in a film and choose the best takes for a
scene.
