Producer: Finances the movie (most important part of film-making), creative control, gets paid even after the movie has been out (points or percentages of the movie), takes bigger risks. Director: Creative control, paints the movie, brings back the puzzle pieces to the Editor (sometimes works with him/her). Editor: makes sure the puzzles fit.
Hey! If you don't mind sharing, What does a TV producer actually do (like what your work day is like)? I aspire to be one and am a sophomore in high school. Isn't a TV producer the same as the producer of tv shows like drama, etc. for example Tina Fey, Mindy Kaling?
@@lamb9770 I worked really hard. It started with working in the TV station at my university. I then worked my way up from a cameraman all the way up from small jobs outside of the university, too freelance, making commercials and more. Everyone's path is different. There's not a direct clear path like becoming a nurse or a doctor. There's not a lot of money in it. I don't think I'd recommend it. It sounds like there is, but unless you get the Right show you will not get that money. The hours are not 9:00 to 5:00 typically. Think on that before making the next step. Doesn't mean it's not for you, but it's definitely worth knowing about.
@@UmamaheswariRajguru producing is such a loose term in TV. It all depends on what you want to do and what shows you want to work on. Know that it's not a direct and clear line such as becoming a doctor, teacher, accountant. You'll have to work long hours and probably start from the bottom. However, it's TV so you don't always have to start the bottom. You could start as a writer and slide over to producer. You could be an actor and slide over to producer. I would say if you really are excited to try it. I would say try producing not directing a short film for someone and see how that goes.
This is probably the best video I have watched explaining what a producer, executive producer and line producer is. After watching Leverage, I wanted to know what exactly Dean Devlin did as the executive producer of such an amazing show. This video helped. Thanks!
100% true from personal experience on many different productions. The UPM (aka line producer) can make or break a production. They tend to be assholes (sometimes out of necessity) to get shit done efficiently. Producers in general are hotshots and flaunt/abuse their power but you can learn a lot about the film/TV business from them.. A good producer can make everything much easier since they can pull strings to make shit happen quickly. Source: I'm a full-time producer 😎 🎬

I've only worked on one film, and our UPM was an absolute badass. The most in-demand and hardworking dude on set, the epitome of a boss as a leader because he was driving himself harder than anyone else. When we saw him giving that much, we all did.
right? The Line Producer is def most unsung hero, and i always chalk up their um bad "attitude" to lack of sleep. And heck, who isn't on their best behavior when you get less then 6 hours of sleep a night for 3-4 months? Though IF its a big budget or an indie (where the nickels and dimes are being watched) I'd add the 1st AD as crucial that can make or break it. Especially with first time feature directors or first time big-budget directors.
The producer takes his idea to a line producer, the line producer comes up with the budget, the producer then raises the money and hires everyone to get the film mad that's all the way from the director to the guy sweeping up the ground on set.
Q: In the movie “US’ with Jordan Peele there were 3 production companies listed in the opening credits. Blumhouse, QC, Monkeypaw. Which company actually is in charge of securing the locations, permits, getting the catering, renting the equipment ect
The responsibilities may have been split amongst the 3. Monkeypaw is Jordan peele's company. I assume those responsibilities fell on him and the other 2 just gave financial support/equipment.
I feel like i’m on a tv show and i’m watching a youtube video but it’s actually a pre-filmed take slapped onto a phone in post prod and the audience knows it’s fake. That’s how good this quality is.
Great video! I've been asking myself this question for years, with just the barebones idea that producers pay for films to be made. Now it make a lot more sense, thanks!
You...are... beautiful. Edit- Let me be more specific: Your eyes are a very nice glacier blue Your beard is stunning But that mood in that room portrayed through the stunning video quality of that camera is really what makes this segment come to life. Great work. PS love that set up in the room and the background city lights
This is how I see it: producers are the person who make the film. There is just a lot of stuff to do so they hire other people to do specific roles. Especially in small productions (less than 3 people or even solo) this is more apparent.
You've literally just give me info on something I've always wanted to know. Even tho I aim to be a successfull actor I had no idea of most of this. Thanks
Thanks That was really very helpful. I was a magazine publisher for 16 years and the Producer role seems almost the same and I have always loved film, maybe I just want to be the Boss. I have a friend who was Accountant Producer on a very big franchise involving wizards etc..he looked after everyday expenses and he did get his name on the credits
This was a great video and you did a wonderful job on breaking down the different producer positions. What is one thing you would recommend to a person who is interested in trying to join the PGA?
This is really helpful, thank you so much. I'm doing a research about stuffs like this recently because I'm trying to write a story about artists and ofcourse, I have to know how film industry works.
I tell you what, UA-cam is an incredible tool. You can literally learn about anything you want on here within seconds. I've never known what a Producer did and only knew that it was a "money guy" in some capacity.
For all who don’t know the reason why you’re seeing such a sharp picture coming from this guys camera even though you’re seeing 1080p is that his camera is outputting 4K or 8K when he shot it but used really good rendering with the upload and saved most of the bits from the video in general so your screen is pushing to upscale to a higher resolution but it can’t because his upload is only capped at 1080p upload if that makes sense
I can tell you for a fact that resolution is mostly not tied to sharpness. Its sensor quality and choice of lens, the better the photosites of a camera, the sharper or clearer the image.
I appreciate this video. I love, Love, LOVE MOVIES, and though I don't always want "the magic" of movies ruined with "behind-the-scenes" featurettes and tabloid exposes (unless it's warranted), I'm always looking to learn a little bit more about how the industry works. IF I COULD ASK OR MAKE ONE SUGGESTION: Maybe you could give more real life examples of the different roles various levels of producer have played in popular films? I don't know if that information is "readily available" to the public. But the same way you mentioned Spielberg and Bay, maybe you could get a list of movies and tell us EXACTLY what each type of producer did on that film? As I said, I don't know if people normally document this stuff, but if so, on even a few movies, I think it would help in understanding EXACTLY what these people do. I'm truly interested in learning, which is why I searched and clicked on your video. Thank you and best of luck!
Just adding my 2 cents, working in VFX Production, they are the other roles that are part of the team Production Coordinator - liasing with artists, timekeeping and scheduleing, feeds this data back to line producer and rest of the team Production Assistant - looks after schedules, bookings, reports to rest of the team
1:38 I didn't understand if the producer producer helps the director to achieve producer producer's vision or the director's vision. Can somebody help me?
The producer hires and helps the director achieve his or her creative vision, which in turn allows the producer to repay investors and make a profit. The producer is not a creative position in the same sense as directing is.
Loved that video! Finally made a bunch of things clear for me :) I would appreciate it, if you could more videos like that, explaining the jobs of a professional film crew. The filmworld I'm growing up in, is a world where the lines between the jobs blur out more and more, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it would be nice to learn who the original/professional lineup looks like ✌️
A beautiful shot of a good presenter. I am intrigued to learn the lingo, as I am climbing into a $30 million feature about a cattle king. I was saying "creative producer", but you say this is the all powerful artistic producer. I will probably be learning as I work with the director.
If the writer/director comes to the producer with a script and says: ”I want to do this”, when the producer then hires the crew, is the writer/director hired at the same time, or how does it work? It seems weird to me if the writer/director would be hired to his/her own idea.
Great content, great explaining. I think it is wise to say that it also differs from country to country. In france both the produce and hired director have the rights to the movie, so a director cannot be so easily fired. I believe in Spain it works the same.

Neutralize the color cast with white balance, desaturate 30%, make a (cold) coffee brown adjustment layer 20% blend mode soft light

Wow!! 😲I just had to pause at 0.02 and admire the picture quality and read the comments
Generally speaking, if a writer/ director hires a Producer, does director have overall authority?
If the director is hiring the producers, the director is the real producer. The producer is who controls the money.
Thank you Rubidium. That was VERY extensive and informative. Well explained. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful, Lisa!
If the writer/director comes to the producer with a script and says: ”I want to do this”, when the producer then hires the crew, is the writer/director hired at the same time, or how does it work? It seems weird to me if the writer/director would be hired to his/her own idea.
Terriric video, I've been struggling with these concepts for so long and this is the first video I found that was straight to the point and clear
Great content, great explaining. I think it is wise to say that it also differs from country to country. In france both the produce and hired director have the rights to the movie, so a director cannot be so easily fired. I believe in Spain it works the same.
Nice explanation -- Off-topic Q: is the main headshot raw or ProRes? (Guessing raw.)
Yes! Its Raw. They would match better if I shot it in 10bit 2k, but I love the raw too much.
