While a filmmaker may be the chief creative voice behind a project, no movie is made without a team effort. Filmmakers need to coordinate with various departments, from wardrobe and makeup to production designers in order to ensure there’s a unified intent and aesthetic behind the film. Before the glitz and glamor of premieres, accolades and awards, filmmakers always start at the beginning, with the ideation of a story conceit. Filmmakers don’t necessarily have to be writers (although many are); their first responsibility is to interpret the words of a script into the creative vision for the movie.
