[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And how does an “executive producer” differ from a “producer”? I know that when a movie wins the Best Picture Oscar, the producers get to come up on stage and take the trophy and make a speech. As I understand it, they are writing the checks and paying for everything, right? But what about the executive producers? Do they have creative control? When the movie promo says “from executive producer Steven Spielberg” does that mean that he got some input creatively? I always assumed the director had complete creative control. Can anyone in the business sort this out for me?[/quote] Who has creative control at the job? If you are on a professional role of any kind, there is a lot of negotiation and power dynamics. The higher ups have official summary yes/no power, but lower downs determine all the details andncan threaten to quit or ignore or undermine the decisions. [/quote]
