What is a videographer?
A videographer is a person who operates the camera on a video production shoot. Previously this person would have been called a cameraperson, camera operator, camerawoman or cameraman. It is a newish term, probably from the last 15 years and grew out of the rise of web video production. Videography the word comes from the Latin “video” or “I see” and “graphy” which means “to write.”
What makes a great videographer?
Communication skills are incredibly important in this kind of work. The ability to listen and understand someone else’s vision and translate that to the screen is not an easy task. Asking the right questions, so as to know the required outcomes is also important.
Good knowledge of cameras and technical filming skills like framing, colour balancing and exposure are obviously all very important. The ability to problem solve is also a requirement as jobs very rarely go exactly to plan.
A great camera operator is also usually pretty good at video editing. Knowing how the shots are all going to go together is important when filming.
Videographers work alone on a regular basis, so the ability to manage time and be disciplined enough to gather the right material unprompted is essential.
Empathy is also right up there, as being able to tell a story with pictures that make the viewer feel something is a very special skill.
How to choose a Melbourne videographer
Always ask to see something that the person has filmed before. A showreel will tell you that they can take pretty pictures (or not), but it’s even better to see a finished video that they have filmed in its entirety so that you know they can tell a story with video. There are plenty of Melbourne videographers out there and if you don’t know someone then google is a great place to start to hire a videographer. (or just give us a call, see what we did there?)
