Broker Vs Producer

Excuse my ignorance on this subject but can someone explain the difference between broker and producer? I understand that a broker represents the client. If an agent is an Independent and contracted to the insurance companies through an FMO or IMO does that make them a broker or producer? My dumb question for the day.
 
A producer is someone who works under a broker or agent.

An agent represents a company (state farm, Allstate, Nationwide, ect.)

A broker represents the client since they can utilize different carriers and dont represent one direct company
