The television director is the person in charge of directing the activities that involve recording or filming a television production.
ObligationsThe obligations of the television director vary depending on whether it is a live production - such as the broadcast of a newscast or a sports event - or a filmed or recorded film. In both cases it is responsible for supervising the placement of the cameras, lighting elements, microphones and support elements. In a fiction production his role is similar to that of a film director, making suggestions to the actors, indicating to the operator when to begin and finish the filming. In television series composed of several episodes, the role of the director may differ from the role of the film director because he will only work in one or several episodes instead of being the author of the entire production; in that case the creative control will rather be in the hands of the television producer of the series. The director of chambers has the function of "tell the story", should achieve with the selection of images to seduce and attract the recipient. Responsibilities
In live productions, the director in addition to promptly giving the orders of the moment, should remain calm and maintain order in the control room, on the floor of film and in all places under his supervision. / p>
The study for the newscast can have, at most, four cameras with reduced movements. In a sports broadcast there may be 20 or 30 cameras and should continually tell operators what to focus on.
While the director is responsible for the specific elements that make the production, the television producer - usually sitting in the control room in the background behind the director - makes a more general coordination, which includes the advertising guidelines and the duration of the program.
