Producing Newbie questions

Hi everyone

I was wondering what the producer's main jobs are during pre-production. Do they create the team, or does the director? What work is divided to the director vs the producer?

Thanks!

There are not hard rules that cannot be broken. Hiring the right team
should be handled by both. The individual strengths of the director and
producer should come into play.

On a non union, low (no) budget project the traditional jobs will overlap
a lot. How the work is divided should be discussed between the producer
and director.

Or are you asking for specifics in the world of unions?
