ABSTRACT
The Screens Producer role is a relatively new production position, new enough that it is often mis-titled, managed by multiple people across different departments, or missing altogether. Once the entertainment industry arrives at a consensus on what defines a Screens Producer, the Media Operations Department will ultimately receive recognition as a stand-alone entity in live event production. The Screens Producer acts as a mediator between video creatives and video engineers to other production disciplines, listening to the needs of each department and helping communication between these teams to reach their goals. In the theater, the Projection Designer is a well-established design department head. Outside the theater, the Screens Producer is not necessarily a design lead, but acts as a creative partner to the often multiple content designers involved in a production. Many productions rely on Media Server Programmers to provide Screens Producer services.
