The Student Director September 26,2008

In the real world, the director has many responsibilities. However, they do not need to play politics as well as a student director. The director always has to conform with the ideas of the producer, whether student or not. In the real world, the lines are already written for every actor. Both student and director have the opportunity change the lines, but the real world director can depend on a qualified source for the written lines. The actors, in the real world, are asked to play major roles and the minor ones may be asked or assigned. For the student, every role is assigned and with a smaller group there are never minor roles. The director can clearly manage his vision, but a student group because of its size has to make everyone at least congenial with each other.
