Technical Camera operator Working in video camera
operation requires good
eyesight, technical skill, and
creativity. Extensive
knowledge of cameras,
lenses, and lighting, and the
ability to operate cameras in
different settings - such as
studios and remote locations
- is essential. Knowledge of
editing equipment and
software is also required for
many positions.
While a college degree is not required
for many video camera operator
positions, an associate's or bachelor's
degree with coursework in
videography, journalism, television,
and film can provide excellent training.
Some universities also offer 2-year
certificate programs in
cinematography with courses in
camera operation, shot composition,
technique, and lighting.

good eyesight, hand-eye
coordination, and physical
strength to hold a camera for
extended periods of time. They

patience, accuracy, stress-
tolerance, and detail-orientation
are also important.

2. Editorial Film/video editor A film or video editor is
responsible for assembling
recorded raw material into a
finished product suitable for
broadcasting. The material
may consist of camera
footage, dialogue, sound
effects, graphics and special
effects. This is a key role in
the post-production process
and the editor's skill can
determine the quality and
delivery of the final product.
Digital technology, specialist
computer software and high-
quality digitization of sound
and pictures have effectively
replaced the traditional
manual method of cutting
film. Depending on the
product, an editor may be
very involved in creating the
narrative, structure and tone
of the program or film. In
some situations, they may be
given creative freedom while
in others they may be
needed merely to operate the
machine.
