Outcomes

Producer

Producers are the core of a film; they will essentially oversee the entirety of the film production. As a producer, you can work for a film company, or work independently. Their primary responsibility is to ensure that the project runs smoothly, is completed in a timely manner, and that it is on track to being on-budget.

Screenwriter

A screenwriter is responsible for creating screenplays/scripts for movies, television, commercials. They collaborate with the producers, directors, and possibly actors to brainstorm ideas, to draft a copy before finalising the final script.

Editor

A film editor is responsible for taking raw and un-cut footage and editing it with things such as sound effects, special effects, and graphics, to produce a final film or media product. A film editor collaborates with the producer and director of the project to get a clear comprehension of their vision. You will be required to adhere by the timeline established by producers and directors to have the final product completed by its deadline. The film or video medium will need to go through a series of revisions until it is complete.
