They produce movies. Meaning that they make the movies.

There are different kinds of Producers, but in general, the Producer(s) is responsible for overseeing the LOGISTICS of getting a film or television production completed. A Director is responsible for the CREATIVE decisions. This all changes a bit when talking about TELEVISION production. A Director is in charge of the creative direction of a narrative feature film. In television, the SHOW RUNNERS/Producers are the driving force behind the creative direction of a television show. A television series will then hire multiple Directors who are responsible for maintaining the established creative continuity for the show and the characters. It's impossible to write everything that a Producer does in this forum so I highly recommend one of the very best books about Producing called The Movie Producer: A Handbook for Producing and Picture-Making, by Paul N.
