The work of director in contemporary theater


Director (French régisseur, from the Latin rego -.. Run) - Creative Worker entertainment arts (theater, cinema, television, circus, pop). The director carries out the staging (staging, opera, ballet, concert or circus program) on a scenic site. In today's performing arts it is often called the producer of a director or. Director, managing the creative work of the entire theater (or other entertainment team) is called the principal director.

director function in the modern theater is extremely large and diverse: it carries the full range of the organization as a creative and technical process of preparation of the performance or program.

The first stage directing work on the performance - a birth overall design and creation of the play stage embodiment (often - together with playwright). After that, the director forms a staging group to nominate a set designer, costume designer, composer, choreographer (if necessary also - assistant director, lighting designer, director of stage movement, fights and battles; choirmaster; author of texts of songs, etc... ). Based on the total volume of work and prepared sketches financial performance estimates compiled with the direct participation of the director (including - for the manufacture of all material parts). Simultaneously, the director determines the executing actors (m. E., Produces roles) and assigns an assistant director,

Next work of director is composed of several directions. On the one hand, it - the general coordination and supervision of the activities of all members of the production team (with the artists - the creation of the layout of scenery and costume sketches, with the composer - a general conception of the music of a performance, with experts in the movement - the development of plastic score performance, and so on.. ). The task of the director - ensure the integrity of all components, combining them into a single creative decision. Therefore, every step of the work of all members of the production team runs the statement of the director. In parallel, we begin the most important part of the preparation of the performance - rehearsal work of the director with the actors, aimed at developing talent performers in relation to each role and the whole setting as a whole.

At the theater there is a stable expression, "the director dies in the actors." In practice, this often means that all the shortcomings of staged performance directed blame; for the successful work of the performing artists praise. In fact, the success or failure of any of the components of the performance (including any acting work) are determined primarily by the director, the main driving force behind the creative process and the main co-author of the play. On this basis it is clear that the director should not only be a good organizer, but also have the widest erudition and knowledge of almost all theater professions - from the acting to the technological process of the scenery; from a thorough knowledge of the technical possibilities of sound, light and equipment montirovochnoy theater to economic literacy;

Therefore, high school preparation and training director of the profession consists of many disciplines, is essential for the future work: the skill of the director and actor; scenic speech; dance; stage movement; history of theater, literature, painting, music, dance and other arts; the basics of economics and psychology; material part theater and t. d.
