CINEMATOGRAPHER – The chief over the camera and light crews working on a film, television production or other live action piece and is responsible for making artistic and technical decisions related to the image.

HOW IS A CINEMATOGRAPHER’S ROLE DIFFERENT TO THAT OF A DIRECTOR? The cinematographer (aka the director of photography) is the head of the camera and lighting crew. He works side by side with camera operators, camera assistants, gaffers, and the light and grip crew. The director’s main task is to interpret the script and transform it into a movie.
