The production of film

Who makes a film? At first we think that actors-the stars which are famous and rich. But the essence of creative work is onto some other place. The film is a result of teamwork. There work directors, cameramen, screen, writers, producents and others.

The best films can get some prices for example, American Film Academy awards Oscars every year. Either American or foreign films have a chance to get Oscars.
