    Hey guys, I like your show, and I also like Christopher Nolan. Now he produced Man of Steel and that certainly did not have the same flavor as The Dark Knight trilogy, so my question is, what does a producer do? Thanks

    Producer
    - Comes up with the finances.
    - Creative control over the movie i.e. story line, direction the movie is going, hiring main actors, etc.
    - gets rewarded/paid even after months or years the movie is is still profiting
    - has a percentage in the movie.
    - takes a big risk (hence financing the movie) but has great returns if the movie is profitable.

    This is why some directors also act as producers
    To have full control over their own work

    Define "producer."
    IN GENERAL: Someone who creates something of value (a.k.a. goods/services)
    IN MEDIA: Person responsible for financial/admininstrative aspects, exercises supervision of production, and hires required personnel
    KNOW: Producer isn't the same as Director (Person responsible for executing interpretive aspects of script), but these two have MOST IMPORTANT RELATIONSHIP in media project
    KNOW: Producers attach themselves to project longer than anyone else involved
    Basically, the producer makes the media project *happen*.

      thanks, that was a really helpful definition!

    I learned what a real producer can do from reading "Shooting to Kill" by Christine Vachon. Her life seemed like living hell as a producer on independent films. Great book BTW!

    Thanks for answering this, I've always wondered what they do. I know sometimes like in the case of Dredd (2012) the producer was talked to more than the director. And like in Tintin, Spielberg and Peter Jackson pretty much co-directed the movie I think.

    I always thought the producer was also the guy that had the final say in the film...the more you know!!

    The interviewer mentions the Director of photography on a movie set, There is no such title, other than just being polite; there is only one Director on a movie and he is the Director of everything. Sometimes the Director of the movie will give the photographer the task of choosing camera positions etc but even then photographer is not called the Director of photography; the director is the boss of every designer, actor, and crew member on set.

    Transformers 123 has documentaries all on youtube you can watch and see how they are made. One of my fave moments was in the 3rd movie a stunt driver crashed a 500, 000 car and bay took it well. Producers added their input also.

    Michael bay is the producer on black sails and trust me as a huge fan of that show you can tell he has nothing to do with that show

    Chris Nolan also co-wrote the Man of Steel

  • @Mozts1
    @Mozts1 9 років тому +1

    As far as MoS goes, Nolan himself said he wasn't involved past pre-production.

    • @SoundWAVDNB
      @SoundWAVDNB 9 років тому

      Mozts1 That's interesting because Snyder & Goyer had to pitch the idea of Kal killing Zod because Superman supposedly wouldn't do that even though he has killed in the comics but that's for a different argument. Point I'm making is that they had to get Nolan on board with that idea? Why? Now that could've happened during the pre-production stage but I think he had more to do with it that just that stage.

      Exactly... like people say Bay had some imaginary full creative control over TMNT... when he only visited the TMNT set once... people always get blamed for shit they don't do.

    They never really answered the question...all I hear them do is call names?!?!?!

      @Real_SkyRipper 6 років тому +1

      They did, Producer can do anything, normally the main producer is the one who started up the movie, hired the director, writers, etc.. then you can have like associated producers that take care of casting, executive producers that take care of the people taking care of casting, etc.. you can even be a producer like they said, by doing nothing, just introducing people to each other, it's a strange thing because it has the same name no matter the task

      ... I got a LITTLE BIT from what they were saying in the video ... BUT .. like you .. I felt that they were MORE interested in being "name droppers" than actually giving an easy-to-understand description of what the ACTUAL JOB consisted of ...
      For THAT .. I would suggest that you read over the first TWO COMMENTS .... THEY give a better "nuts and bolts" description than the video did ... 😊😊😊

    • @jansimms8292
      @jansimms8292 5 років тому +1

      .... NOTE ....
      ..... SINCE the location of those comments MAY have moved over TIME .. and no longer BE the first and second comments under the video .. I'm adding the following information for you ....
      ..... THOSE comments were made by "River Bliss" (1 yr ago) and "BlueFox94" (3 yrs ago) ...
      THE time references in the brackets ( ) .. are from the date of ME posting THIS comment here ...
      ..... HOPE this was helpful ... HAVE a great day .. 😊😊😊😊 .. 🌟🌟

    Man of Steel did have the same flavor as the Dark Knight Trilogy. Downbeat, somber, multiple subplots, color washed. Good or bad, they were linked by the tone.

      And that is not that much easy , first of all you have to earn so much money to start and to give money to your employees and fund films and then there is risk to not having attention from audience and in result it becomes very stressful, so do it if you passionately wanna do with calculated risks, you commented 6 years ago, how it's going?? I am hoping best

    Think Chris Nolan was bad to jump start the dccu. I like man of steel but I would rather see a different superman. Man of steel was what it was just so batman can come in easily cause wb doesn't care abt any character except batman.
