Version 1.0
Issue Date: April 2024
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required by directors to interpret and use key elements of scripts as the basis for developing the creative vision for relatively large-scale productions. These could include feature films, short films or television dramas.
Directors work closely with writers in developing scripts and may have a major influence on the final creative outcome. In the final analysis, directors may be answerable to a producer, but they often perform both roles.
A high level of creativity and innovative thinking is required, since a director's role is to establish the big picture view for productions and to create a sense of overall unity within productions.
This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to use sound and visual images to transform written scripts into screen productions.
