Directors commentaries are recorded commentaries that are recorded by the director. The commentary is recorded on top of the final cut or an edited version of whatever the director who is commentating has released ( feature film, music video) . This commentary is usually released along with the DVD or Digipack of the film or music video that has been commentated on. People like to watch directors commentaries because they might be interested in how the film was made and want to hear about the stories backstage. Others may want to watch it for entertainment depending on the directos humour and who he does the commentary with. Most of the time directors commentaries are done with someone else involved with the film, this could be an actor or one of the camera men to give a different insight into the film.
Directors commentaries can be presented in different ways:
- scene-specific: which is done over specific scenes of the film. Usually involves a lot more editing and planing.
- screen-specific. Where the audio recording is done over the full final version of the film, recorded in one take.
