I assume that the majority of student and short film makers don't use a producer but as we are learning to go into the business, it's good practice to have one and having one can improve the production and quality of your film.
My producer only recently joined me for this project so hasn't in fact done much work or needed to. I done all the production work on my film so far myself.
I got the locations, I got the actors, I got the crew, wrote the script myself and everything else
In fact all my producer has done is give me one idea. I'm not saying I have a bad producer or anything I'm just saying I have no real need for them. And to be honest I don't feel comfortable or willing to give someone credit for a job in my film they didn't even do.
I have worked with this person before for a documentary project and to be honest (again!) last time they done next to nothing there. I done all the production work, the directing, meeting with the subjects and teachers etc, the editing, the majority of the camera work (which was their job) the production folder and written work, all they were really there for it seemed was for moral support.
So this leaves me to question...do I need a producer?
