When I was looking through the links for the article review, I saw the nofilmschool.com. When I entered into the the website I found myself scrolling down a lot. Then, I saw the title, “what does a development executive do”. I was curious so I clicked the picture and found out some new interesting things. It is a high-level position generally above a creative executive within a studio or production company. They read scripts, take meetings, give notes and work on finding the intellectual property or source material that can be turned into film or television.
The executive developer decides, with a lot of other executive developers, if a show and or. Movie should be on air. When you are in a meeting with a person who wants to put their show or movie on the air, you will sit down across a table from them and listen as they tell you all the stuff that they need to and more. Hopefully they tell you what you wanna hear so that you can put their show on the air. An executive developer should as well read books and article so that they can try to help spark ideas in the directors heads. If they are reading books and articles they can also have an impact on them self’s by getting them ready to work or interview a old or new director and having multiple articles going at one time. I think that this job would be very interesting. I think this because you get to decide what people would be able to see on television that day and night. At the same time that i think that it would be fun, i also think there would be a lot of hardships. If you declined a show that people want to see, then everyone will be upset with you.
