    Why are Producers usually the highest paid person on a film set? What makes their contribution so valuable? Are power, control and money such significant influences?

    Producers is much more than just budgeting. Is the face, the sales man, the relationship keeper, the marketer. From conceptual to showcasing. Much more than just been on set and going on stage to get an award. Indie producers have to deal with the paper work, the tax credits, the deal memos, the union rules, when covid was around thinking about how to maintain the show going. The legality if what can be or not be said. Is a tough job and with HUGE responsibilities. When crew goes to bed, the producer is still thinking 4x steps ahead if what can go wrong and how to fix it.

    It isn't merely about coming in under budget. Producers who make real money are the ones who have a stake in the distribution of the movie, and if it's a hit they reap the rewards.

    Producers do not “get to keep” the unspent budget. And “using budgeted money to their personal benefit” in the way described is stealing and fraud. Also, you do not need to pay dues to pga to get a pga mark, and the number of days on set is a tiny factor is an extensive set of criteria to qualify to use the pga mark. Where did the information in this video come from….?

    The p.g.a. credit at the end of one's name in a film does NOT require membership in the Producer's Guild. Nor is it predicated on a certain # of hours on set. That accreditation is vetted based on the actual work/labor contribution to the project (in person or virtual) -- vs just writing a check, greenlighting or other cursory participation as you noted at the end of the video.
    Also, I echo @LatinxNation as well. The role of a producer is well more than managing the budget and there are way too many who carry a producer title and responsibility who do NOT out earn others in film or television or other project mediums.

    I don't believe that studios, which are part of huge corporations, would allow a producer to pocket the difference of any unspent funds. They have all the resource in the world to account for every penny and ensure legally that any unspent funds are returned. If producers do makr alot of money it will be off any development deal or backend they get.

    As a producer most time you spent the money for the production most time. So, definitely after the job it's out and you have paid the actors and crew. The net profit becomes yours. For example A TRIBE CALLED JUJAH.

    Producers so out earn everyone in the film industry, that's why everyone are becoming one because they make the most money it's not how much you make, it's what you do with that money. A producer can make $100,000.00, a million, millions, or maybe even billions from making movies. For instance look at Tyler Perry he's a billionaire, Spike Lee made $7 million from his very first movie, even small tim unknown producers made $80,000. But just like I said it's not how much you make it's what you do with that money. A lot of writers and actors are on strike because producers are saying they cannot afford to pay them, so they're using artificial intelligence to be actors and using AI to write there scripts and these producers are big time millionairess and billionaires. That's why I say it's not how much you make, but what you do with that money. And they're not paying those actors enough they can barely pay their rent. If you're a huge big time producer and your film crew is on strike then and being replaced by a robot or if there voice are being used and it's a robot and not the real actor's voice you must not be managing your money right and I am not being funny because I know God is watching me right now as I write this. I don't want God to put me in that same position when I become a producer because if you're being funny God will punish me, so God I'm not being funny
