How much does the executive director of the crew usually pay a day?

An executive director refers to a director who is in charge of on-site shooting in a film crew jointly shot by two or more directors, or in the name of the general director. The task is to carry out the unified intention of the general director or director group and work more effectively and methodically.

The executive director is the executor of the director's specific work. He is mainly responsible for the normal operation of the studio, ensuring that the shooting is carried out according to the shooting plan and making daily calls. He should prepare all the shooting plans and tasks and be responsible for breaking down the script division plan.

He and the director should make rational use of their time, supervise and ensure that all other types of work can be carried out according to the time plan. His other jobs include shooting plans, labor contracts, ensuring the safety of the studio, and managing the budget with the production director. He is usually the leader of the director group, and sometimes he shouts "action" for the director.

The executive director is sometimes mistaken for an assistant director rather than a director in the crew, but in fact, the executive director is usually considered as a director in the crew.
