The various visual elements that go into a film are more often than not designed. In order to achieve a kind of visual unity throughout the narrative, it is important to have a cohesive vision that correlates locations, setting, costumes, props and camera strategies. It is out of the need to have a co-ordinated control over all the visual elements of a film, that the profession of production designing was created.

A Production Designer is the key person responsible for selecting locations, creating settings, and maintaining unity between make-up, costumes and sets. The actual overall look of a filmed event such as Feature Films, Television programs, Music Videos or Advertisments is determined by his or her expertise. From early pre-production, the production designer collaborates with the Director and Director of Photography to establish a unified on-screen visual reality according to the conceptual possibilities inherent in any given project.
