edit: to clarify, I don’t agree with any of this, I just thought it was funny.

    So is conductor similar to film director or project manager, in that it seems pretty unnecessary for a small thing (which is what most critics imagine) but once it becomes complex and there’s a lot of people trying to do different things at once then you need someone to keep everyone on the same page?

      Yeah a directors job is mainly to prepare everything and hire good people to execute the movie filming process. Saying ‘action’, ‘cut’, and ‘I need more “whatever” out of you’ are a pretty small part of the job.
