Behind the Scenes

Here's a who's who of people "behind the scenes" of Hollywood.

A PRODUCER is the head decision-maker in the filmmaking process. He or she oversees decisions about the film's script, direction, and budget. After filming is complete, the producer also supervises post-production and distribution of a film.

A DIRECTOR is in charge of the creative vision of a film. He or she auditions actors and approves costumes and sets. The director has control over everything from how an actor plays a part to the camera angles. The director also works with the producer, editor, and music composer to complete the movie after filming has wrapped.
