As the Director, I am responsible for bringing the producer’s vision to air. Sequence visuals together to document the event, tell the story, and evoke emotion in viewers. Provide crew with the elements they need to succeed, make quick and calculated decisions, and communicate clearly to crew over headset. Pre-think scenarios and assign camera responsibilities based on what’s most likely to happen. Proactively seek opportunities to enhance the show.
