Who is a "cameraman"?
A cameraman is responsible for operating the camera during film, television, or video shoots. They capture the footage according to the director's vision, adjusting camera angles, movements, and focus to achieve the desired visual effects. The cameraman works closely with the director and other crew members to ensure that the visual elements of the production are accurately recorded and contribute effectively to the storytelling.
Example
During the action sequence, the cameraman skillfully panned the camera to follow the fast-moving car chase.
As the dialogue scene progressed, the director instructed the cameraman to cut to a reaction shot of the other character.
The director signaled for the cameraman to cut when the actor went off-script.
