Shared with both Keith Moore, Nat'l Director of Indian Education & the Nat'l Museum of the American Indian =P﻿﻿﻿RIMARY ROLES= = ADDITIONAL ROLES = The **Set Designer** establishes the environment for each scene prior to the start of vidtotaping. This may include simply organizing the props on the set, or finding the necessary resources needed to create the scene. The Set Designer is responsible for gathering props, costumes, and setting the stage design. The Set Designer will work closely with the camera operator to arrange the setting to match the specific camera angles for each scene. ||

The Director will help to ensure that all processes are followed and will report team progress to the teacher (Executive Director.) Regular team meetings should be led by the Director. The Director is responsible to make sure credits for materials and work are properly referenced in the video. In some cases, the Director may also construct the storyboards. ||
 * [[image:http://officeimg.vo.msecnd.net/en-us/images/MR900285287.gif width="54" height="54" align="left"]]The **Camera Operator** is in charge of the actual equipment during the shoot. The camera operator may gain direction from the Producer and/or Set Designer, but will be the person responsible for creating the digital video footage. The Camera Operator will be in charge of equipment for the shoot. Actual capturing duties may include ensuring there is enough videotape and that the lighting and audio will be correctly captured, marking the taped scenes, allowing “black space” between scenes for later adding transitions, and knowing what scenes may need to be a re-shot the same day. The Camera Operator creates clear scenes in order to make the editing process more efficient. ||

Most likely, you will need to assign specific team members to be actors in your video. You might also include people who are not on your team as an “actor,” or an “extra,” or perhaps you want to include an interview. ||
 *  [[image:http://officeimg.vo.msecnd.net/en-us/images/MR900283190.gif width="53" height="53" align="left"]] The **Producer** role coordinates the project schedule and the tasks during the production process. The Producer is responsible for communicating the next steps to all team members so that the project stays on schedule and meets the project objective. The Producer will reserve equipment and supplies for the day’s work and be in charge of making sure all supplies are returned on time. The Producer basically manages the day-to-day team operations. Producer duties may include reviews of the daily [|work log] for the team members, analysis of what changes may need to be made to the schedule, and reporting issues to the Director. ||
 * [[image:http://officeimg.vo.msecnd.net/en-us/images/MR900303469.gif width="57" height="57" align="left"]]The **Researcher** is responsible for finding, analyzing, and compiling the information necessary for the video project. Research may include, but is not limited to the following: interviews, surveys, primary source materials (documents, photos, music, etc.), and finding facts or statistics. All research should be conducted using credible library resources. Depending on the size of the project, the Researcher may also assume the role of Script Writer. ||
 * [[image:http://officeimg.vo.msecnd.net/en-us/images/MR900337036.gif width="51" height="51" align="left"]]The **Script Writer** works with the Researcher and the team to provide the exact wording, the script, to be used for the video project. The role of the Script Writer involves reviewing the research information to determine what facts might best convey the video’s message, then paraphrasing the research materials. In many cases, the Script Writer creates original writing that may not be directly related to the factual information, such as dialogue between characters or entertainment-based work. ||
 *  [[image:http://officeimg.vo.msecnd.net/en-us/images/MR900354641.gif width="74" height="74" align="left"]]The role of the **Storyboard Artist** is to create the scenes for the video production on paper. The artist will sketch every scene in proper, numbered order before any filming takes place. A storyboard template is used for sketching the scenes and also showing production details, such as camera angles, lighting, and text captions that describe the action of each scene. Storyboarding is an important pre-production planning task, however, at times, a great idea will arise during videotaping which will cause storyboards, scripts, and even research to be necessarily modified. Several types of storyboard styles may be used ([|Storyboard A] or [|Storyboard B]) and more can be found by looking at the Web sites recommended in [|Internet Resources] for video production.

 *  [[image:http://officeimg.vo.msecnd.net/en-us/images/MR900283902.gif width="50" height="50" align="left"]]You may wish to assign a **Sound Engineer** to be in charge of making sure you not only capture the proper sound quality the day of the shoot(s), but also to research music, to obtain permissions for use, and to suggest other sound "bites" to the team. In some cases, the camera operator may assume these duties the day of the actual videotaping while the Video Editor suggests sound additions to the group during the editing process.  ||
 * [[image:http://officeimg.vo.msecnd.net/en-us/images/MR900283646.gif width="56" height="56" align="left"]]The **Video Editor** will facilitate the process of viewing the footage with the team, deciding what shots should be used, and making the final edits. The Video Editor will add music, consistent transitions, correct titles, text, and credits, while providing the video with an overall “look and feel” that meets the project objectives. The Video Editor may work closely with the Producer(s), Writers, and Set Designer to guide the overall effects of the video and lead the review of progress to the team during meetings. The Video Editor should be able to select the best scenes and combine these with appropriate and effective special effects. ||
 * [[image:http://officeimg.vo.msecnd.net/en-us/images/MR900354604.gif width="43" height="43" align="left"]]Your video may require detailed, time-consuming, art that needs to be produced using another application such as Photoshop® or Flash®. If so, a **Graphic Artist** may be required who will work closely with the Video Editor. The Video Editor may complete basic editing transitions //and// also may supply special graphical enhancements to the video. ||
