There’s the producer/director in some sort of master control room. This room has monitors that show the feed from all of the cameras and the director will tell the switcher operator when to switch to what camera. The director also has communication with the camera operators so he can tell them where to point & what to zoom in on. The director usually also has a script or timeline as to what is going to happen so he can prepare camera angles & positioning.
