The board of directors is generally described in terms of its prominent structural attributes, including size, composition, and independence.
This Quick Guide examines the importance of these and whether they contribute to board effectiveness and shareholder value.
It answers the questions:
• What is the composition of a typical board?
• Which factors improve governance quality?
• Which factors do not?
• Can a board’s quality be determined by its structure?

Role Accountability is good. Personal Responsibility is great.
Accountability is about managing roles. Personal Responsibility is about leading change.
When you focus on Accountability > Responsibility you get unhappy people and low performance.
When Responsibility > Accountability you get happy people and amazing performance.
2. The producer has the responsibility of:
Instructing, managing, overseeing, and controlling matters such as
raising the fund, hiring employees and arranging for distributors. The
producer is involved throughout the all stages of the film production.
My actions as the producer:
I have looked through the storyboard with the director. I have
discussed weather conditions with the director, and found solutions
for any possible constraints.
3. The location manager has the responsibility of:
Finding suitable locations for the director’s vision and plans for
scenes. They must also make sure that they can clear the area while
production is in session, as outside noise and people will lower the
professionalism of the film. Shoots must be away from motorways
and roads as it will create background noise not wanted in the film.
My actions as the producer:
As our final product will be a music video, background noise will not
be a problem as the video will be muted. I have been location
searching, and have taken pictures of the possible locations for the
outside of a house, which will be used for filming. Pictures of the
possible houses (next slide)
4. I have chosen this location because, it
fits the type of lifestyle the characters
are representing. It shows a middle-class
status, and it is not too fancy.
Although there are building works
happening, it will not affect the filming
as the soundtrack will cover it.
5. The camera operator is imaginative and well thought. Camera work is essential in
how successful a film is and how much is portrayed during a film. The use of a
camera can give messages to an audience about the characters or locations. They
are one of the most highly skilled practitioners on a film crew. Camera job roles
include: Director of photography, script supervisor, photography Ariel Camera
Pilot, camera assistant, marine and diving camera crew, grip crane operator,
video assistant operator casting
My actions as the camera operator:
I’ve been experimenting with the camera, familiarizing myself with it. I did
research on the camera we are using for our filming. I researched on how to get
good quality, for night time scenes. I also researched tutorials on Youtube, on how
to achieve effects such as the ‘motion blur’ effect.
