Television director

A television director directs the activities involved in making a television program and is part of a television crew.

Duties

The duties of a television director vary depending on whether the production is live (as in a television news or sports television event) or recorded to film, video tape, digital video or video server (as in a dramatic or interview production).

Primarily, the director is responsible for "calling" the broadcast, supervising the placement of professional video cameras (camera blocking), lighting equipment, microphones, props, graphics, and the overall pacing and feel of the production. In a dramatic arts production, the television director's role can be similar to a film director's, giving cues to actors and directing the camera placement and movement. In a television show composed of individual episodes, the television director's role may differ from a film director's in that he or she will usually work only on some television episodes instead of being the auteur of the entire production. In an episodic television production, the major creative control will likely reside with the television producer(s) of the show. However, the director has input, whether it be how, if, and why something can or can't be done.
