Asker: Την έχω δει αυτή την εκδοχή ωστόσο ο Executive δεν κάνει εκτέλεση παραγωγής, είναι πολύ ψηλά στην ιεραρχία της παραγωγής, όπως λέει και η wikipedia "doesn't participate in the technical operations of the production process, but who is still responsible for the success of a project"

agree  Sokratis VAVILIS: Δες και αυτό: http://tinyurl.com/bsbrp6 / προσοχή: το executive δεν έχει την έννοια της εκτέλεσης και είναι λάθος στα ελληνικά. Η εκτέλεση αναφέρεται στον line manager.

  -> Ευχαριστώ. Ναι, το είδα. Πρόσθεσα και δύο εναλλακτικές μεταφράσεις. ΄Ισως μπορούμε να πούμε "διευθυντής εκτέλεσης παραγωγής".

Explanation:
Βάζω βαθμό βεβαιότητας τρία, γιατί δεν έχουμε context. Executive producer στην τηλεόραση είναι σχεδόν συνώνυμο με τον σεναριογράφο, ενώ σε μεγάλο βαθμό κάνει και δουλειές που κάνει συνήθως ο σκηνοθέτης.

Στον κινηματογράφο, είναι απλά εκπρόσωπος του παραγωγού, δηλ. ο κύριος με την γραβάτα που έρχεται από το Ελληνικό Κέντρο Κιν/φου, ας πούμε, και εποπτεύει κυρίως τα οικονομικά.

Βέβαια, αρκετοί παρευρίσκονται και στα γυρίσματα.

Εδώ έχει μια συνέντευξη με έναν παραγωγό που εξηγεί το ρόλο του, ενώ εδώ έχει ορισμούς του executive producer:

An "executive producer" is someone who is either financing a film, or is representing a studio or party that is financing a film. Films can have multiple backers, and therefore more than one executive producer. Executive producers -- often referred to as "the suits" because of their formal attire -- may not have any movie-making experience at all.

Television Producer
Different types of producers in the industry today include (in order of seniority):

* Executive producer: Usually at least one, but not necessarily every, executive producer is in charge of production, or the show runner. Show creators are automatically given the title of executive producer, even after they depart the show. Executive producers can also be head writers.
