The director can request revisions to the script during this phase, often working closely with the writers responsible for the story. Directors also review the tone of the film and communicate their vision to the heads of the other departments before production begins. Another step in pre-production is listing shots and creating storyboards. This phase also includes auditioning and casting actors to find the right people to fill the roles and bring the story to life. The most important role of a film director during the production phase is directing the actors and the camera to get the right angles, shots, and results. The director must get to know the actors and understand how they like to do their jobs, and then they can adjust their directing to bring out the best possible performance.
