Best Answer

Film is a director's medium, meaning it's the way storytellers tell stories on film.

A director's role is to interpret the script so that the elements of the story show up visually, to guide the actors, to work with the set decorators, location managers, costume and makeup teams, lighting, sound and camera teams in order to maximize every frame of film used to tell the story.

Although a director is hired and paid by the producer, on the set, the director is the leader of the project.
