Turning Words into Pictures
Movie directors take the script, which is the written story, and decide how to show it on screen. They choose where the story happens, what the scenes look like, and what the characters should do. Directors work with costume makers, set builders, and camera teams to make the world of the movie feel real. They also guide the actors on how to speak and act so the audience feels connected to the story.
Bringing Everything Together
Directors also decide how the movie will sound and look from start to finish. They choose the camera angles, lighting, music, and special effects that make the story exciting. They work with editors to put the scenes in the correct order so the movie makes sense and feels complete. A good director makes sure every part of the movie fits together so the story feels alive on screen.
