Direction

A director is the creator of a film, he/she needs to direct lots people, from actors to backstage coworker like dip, support team members. Directing is also an art, a director need to ask team members to express his/her meaning well, this needs good communication.

Director and actors

The performance of actors expresses the entire mood of film. So what kind of expression is needed, what motivations characters get should be well discussed before shooting.

Director and DOP

As I wrote before, a DOP is the director of camera. However what kind of shooting angle, size, zoom in or out, track or not is also depends on director’s call. A DOP is more like a person who execute complicated camera movements.
