What is Videography
Videography refers to the process of capturing moving images on electronic media (e.g., videotape, hard disk, or streaming media). The term includes methods of electronic production and post production. It is the equivalent of cinematography, but with images recorded on electronic media instead of film stock.
The videography market has grown to include distribution as well as production. With this growth has come market segmentation, based on the application: event video, corporate video, and broadcast video.
The advent of the Internet has created a global environment where videography covers many more fields than just shooting video with a camera. Included under the videography umbrella are digital animation, gaming, web streaming, video blogging, still slideshows, remote sensing, spatial imaging, medical imaging, and in general the production of most bitmap- and vector-based assets. As the field progresses videographers may produce their assets entirely on a computer without ever involving an imaging device, using software-driven solutions.
A videographer may be the person actually operating the camera or he or she may be the person in charge of the visual design of a production.
