Production Roles

Research and define the main roles within a film production (camera operator, actors, sound technician, editors, film director, location manager, storyboard operator)

Camera OperatorA camera operator or cameraman is a professional operator of a film or video camera. They carry out the instructions from the director and using different camera shots make the film more interesting. 
Actors is a person who acts using speech, body language and movement. This could be interpreting a character or improvise the reactions of a character in a situation, in a dramatic or comic production and works in film, television, theatre, or radio in that capacity.
Sound Technicianis a specialist in a skilled trade that deals with the use of machinery and equipment for the recording, mixing and reproduction of sounds. 
Editorsis the process of selecting and preparing written, visual, audible and film media used to convey information through the processes of correction. He works with the footage and changes parts which need to be changed. They make the audience enjoy the film with the different shots that they make. He creatively puts the images and rolls of films together to tell the story.
Film Directoris a person who directs the actors and film crew in filmmaking. They control a film's artistic and dramatic aspects, while guiding the technical crew and actors.
the director presents the image which has been given to him from the film producer. He portrays their view onto the screen and controls what everyone does in the scene. He decides what everyone does in the film. They are responsible for turning the script into a series of shots. They decide what the audience should get from their experience. They are in charge of deciding who are the other extras in the film. They coordinate the actors moves and also may be involved in the writing, financing and editing of a film.
Location Manageris responsible for the finding and securing locations to be used and coordinating the logistics involved for the production to successfully complete its necessary work. The location manager works closely with the director and the production designer to pick a perfect scene for the film to take place. They are also in charge for the responsibility of the public and the crew while filming. 

As a group decide on which role each group will be taking and why?
