This post contains comparison of roles in the professional industry and roles in my production...
Camera Operator: Me, films each shot and scene. In the film industry, they have access to high quality equipment which allows the overall production to be of a high standard of quality. However due to having a low budget it means that I may have to use affordable cameras and equipment, meaning that the production compared to the a companies film may not look as good quality wise.
Actors: Others, Interpreting others' words in order to bring a script to life, and to put flesh and blood on characters, however film companies normally use actors that meet the criteria they are looking for. Whereas in my production I will be using close friends in order to complete this task, at first I thought i would have trouble assigning actors, but this has not been the case thankfully.
Lighting Technicians: Decides the amount of light to be used in each shot, professionally, spotlights and other fine equipment is used, however it's likely I will be relying on natural light and maybe adjustable lights in my house etc.
Choreographer: Trains actors to perform a routine, usually this job requires someone with a certain expertise in something which can then be taught to others. In my case I'm untrained in this category meaning that I shall be improvising in order to organise the actions of my actors.
Editor: Me, Uses software to collaborates with the sound department and the actors in order to put together a number of clips into a final piece. I feel as if I could get good results from the editing side due to becoming familiar with final cut pro in the past. I'm aiming to make the final production to look quality on the editing side!
Director: Me, This job entails organising people on a set and also organising props,actors etc. I plan to be very professional when it comes to filming. In order to ensure that the actors and others know what is expected from them. This will also help to make my production better quality rather than unorganised and 'tacky'.
Costume Designer: Me, due to the fact that I will need to ensure that my actors are wearing clothing that is clearly linked with football hooliganism
Music Creator: I would like to take the task of creating music in order for it to fit with my trailer.
Location Manager: I will have most of the say for this, due to the fact that its my trailer! I will need to ensure that the locations fit with the style of my trailer.
Producer: Would be ideal however due to the fact that this is only a low budget trailer its highly unlikely there will be one, however the job entails- http://creativeskillset.org/job_roles_and_stories/job_roles/757_producer Producers have overall control on every aspect of a film's production. They bring together and approve the whole production team. Their key responsibility is to create an environment where the talents of the cast and crew can flourish. Producers are accountable for the success of the finished film. They steer the film from beginning to completion and beyond.
