According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, camera operators usually hold a bachelor’s degree in film or a similar field. Courses in these programs typically go over the equipment, shooting techniques and the general processes of film shooting. Aspiring camera operators could also go to film school to learn about the artistic or creative aspects of cinematography. In addition, some colleges and universities offer cinematography certificates.

Camera operators require excellent hand-eye coordination combined with an artistic flair to obtain the shots each unique scene demands. Remaining patient and having the endurance to work on a set for long periods of time is a talent that continues to develop over time for camera operators as projects often require long hours of hard work to create the final, perfect product.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the median yearly salary of camera operators was $49,080 in 2015. Camera operators are expected to see little growth in the job market from 2014-2024, per the BLS. Job competition will be tough and require camera operators to go to extra lengths in order to secure employment. Cities that are big on entertainment, such as L.A. and NYC, offer the most opportunities for camera operators.

Although postsecondary education isn’t required for this profession, some career hopefuls do take photography courses at colleges, vocational schools or art schools to learn the techniques for composing, creating and preserving visual images. Employment growth of an average level for all occupations, at 3%, was predicted for photographers by the BLS, from 2014-2024. In 2015, the BLS reported an annual median wage of $31,710 for these professionals.

For those who want to be in charge while creating television shows, movies or live theater, working as a producer or director might be appealing. Most of these professionals have bachelor’s degrees and work experience in acting or writing. In 2014, the BLS projected an 9% increase in jobs through 2024, which was faster than the average for all occupations at that time. Producers and directors earned a median annual salary of $68,440 in 2015, according to the BLS.

I never intended to get into film editing. Four years ago, I was interested in graphic design and traditional animation. One day, I was asked to make a short animated film and it was during the process of doing that when I first discovered editing. As an editor, it’s my job to help directors realize their creative vision. I’m also able to put my own ideas into the film, helping shape the story and the pace of a film.

In some cases, I start editing to sound effects and music tracks, for instance, in the “Telling Lies” project, I cut shots to the rhythm of music, allowing music to provide formal and rhythmic continuity between shots. However, this concept isn’t suitable for every film; the typical starting point in understanding the pace of a film is working alongside the sound production team in order to sync the tracks. .

A number of things need to be done at the beginning of a film edit. “Syncing up” is a first step in the process because the shots are often taken separately from the sound. Editing without sound is a learned skill – especially when there is no dialogue – which requires matching sound with the filmed image, choosing the desired takes and putting it all together.

Choosing what frame(s) to use at a particular point in the film is an important element of pace-timing. During the first cut, I consider questions such as: where in a sequence should a particular cutaway or close-up be positioned for a maximum impact? In “working with acting projects, there are a lot of interactions between two main characters.” (Kate and Ray). First, I cut scenes, taking out redundant pauses of actors for “brew” dialogue. Each editor should learn to distinguish performances from error (dead space) and it’s not as simple as following the action to its conclusion. It’s much more complex. When cutting into the performance, I pay attention to the sequence, being careful not to break the rhythm established by the characters in the scene.
