What exactly does a tv/film producer do?

Take a look here: http://www.imdb.com/Glossary/P#producer , but it's also worth following the links to the other types of producer.

A film producer should manage the process of making the film. They are usually involved in organising funding, casting, hiring all the needed staff, and basically taking the film from the script or concept through to the finished product. The degree of involvement varies from producer to producer, some even have a part in directing the film as well.
