Explain the individual roles within a specific team

There are many different roles in the creation of a trailer, and as we are a small organisation the team is really all involved.
In pre-production, a lot of the team get together and discuss whether that is throwing in their ideas for the trailer or what aspect the editor should focus on when creating.

Pre-production is really preparation for when the editor can get their hands on the project and have a go at it.
The people involved include my role a Production Assistant. I may be asked from time to time to send out a music brief, meaning searching for music that the editor feels fits their creation or idea for the trailer. I will send out to multiple libraries, where hopefully I will receive music that works and then sent onto the editor, where they can select which one they wish to use.

The Creative Director also has a big role in the pre-production team, he looks over the ideas the editor has and what route they will take. The Creative Director will always keep in mind what the client has asked for, so if the editor has an idea that is totally going the wrong way, his job is to make sure they get back on the correct path.

The editor of course has a big role in the pre-production time, he or she will start collecting ideas from other trailers or music they have heard before together, and create almost a mood board to show what they have in mind for the specific project. They too will keep in mind the clients brief and try to stay within the lines of it.
