Do you consider yourself a videographer or cinematographer?
@AndresArosemena
@AndresArosemena 2 года назад
I consider myself a videographer because most of what I do is event videos, and when I shoot product videos or interviews I feel I am nowhere near the level of crafting the scenes to call myself a cinematographer, even though I am trying to improve my lighting with each job.

I don't agree with your understanding of videographer. As anyone familiar in the industry, a "videography" is a loaded word. A videographer is a layman belief that someone who does filming, can do pre, production to post, including sound design and editing and effects. While cinematography refer to specific actions and role for pre, production and post. A "videographer" can do what a cinematographer does, while a cinematographer might not able to do what a "videographer" can do.

Thank your for this great video, Eric. I started out ten years ago with videography. Non-staged capture of reality as aesthetic as possible. I earned good money. No operators, assistants, props, lighting & setdesign. direction by a client representative who checked the images while I captured them. It was fun. Small lightweight cameras and I met lots of nice people turning client reps into friends. We shot most of the stuff at luxury hotels & estates hosting congresses & graduations. Beautiful places. I operated on my first short shortly after. Way more prep, we started creating the shotlist half a year in advance. There was an entire department just in charge of changing the reality around us. For me it was the next step of creative freedom. All the time & control I never had before. Today I light & sometimes operate for commercials. Creating new worlds based in the reality of our own. I love it. More than I loved capturing real events in the real world professionally.

To me a videographer is mostly a one-person crew (they'll often direct/film/edit/color grade/etc their own projects) and a cinematographer is part of a bigger crew where there's other heads of departments and they'll mostly supervise a team of ACs, grips and gaffers.

I can't agree, I've seen guys rich enough to start a production studio with the owner mostly acting as director/DP and with separate employees for editing, animation etc, and yet they shot everything on DSLR in auto mode...

Videography is the art of how to best capture real-life scenes, while cinematography is the art of staging the best artificial scene possible. Comparing videography to cinematography is like comparing photography to painting.

The way I see it: Cinematography is crafting moments through blocking, framing, lighting, etc., to maximize the emotion of story elements. There is a lot of time and thought put into each frame, and each scene. Videography is capturing moments as they occur, with little manipulation of the environment, and often little thought as yo how the story will unfold. Like, capturing a wedding or event that will be shared with that group of people. I go back and forth between both, depending on what the client needs. But, I always carry a cinematographers approach with me no matter what I do.

That was really good! Thank you for the detailed breakdown. Well-explained with a lot good points. I watched this as I'm trying to create a tagline for my drone business. I was thinking, should I say cinematography or videography? I was going to settle on cinematography but now I think I'll go with videography. However, incorporating the principles of cinematography. Great video!

Hey Eric, interesting take I really enjoyed your video (and channel!). I shoot docs for PBS full time and also freelance DP a bunch on the side. I personally dislike being called/ credited a videographer, but have also chosen to 'stay quiet' on it with EP's who may be ignorant to this even being a thing. Probably because the check still clears, right? We should all probably be more vocal at times. I've had this conversion a bunch with collogues over the past few years and this is what I believe: By using a set of acquired skills and by intentionally manipulating the lighting, lensing, and camera movement - you become a cinematographer. For most of the work I do, I'm trying my best to give an accurate depiction of a subjects world (on doc work) while also capturing images that move emotionally. There is a very fine line we have to walk there on doc work vs narrative. Just food for thought!

Hey David, really great thoughts. From my perspective, what you call yourself is important, because it forms an identity for you to operate under. But I don’t mind if others use different words. I primarily work with business clients. They’re not filmmakers, so therefore don’t have the vocabulary or understand the difference between terms. To them, I’m the videographer, camera guy, filmer, etc. If that’s the word that makes sense to them that’s okay.

Good way of explaining although a cinematographer doesn't often chose the costumes and direct the actors. Those are separate HODs like the director and costume designer who do that. The DP will have their input on it but ultimately it's not their department. A cinematographer's job is the visual execution of the material in accordance with the director so camera and lens choice, filters, composition, lighting and camera movement. A videographer can be someone who is mindful of lighting and these things too. But they usually work alone so a videographer essentially is a director, producer, cinematographer, gaffer, costume designer and sound recordist all in one. You are right though, when a few people are added to the crew, the lines do get blurred.

Videography is only about taking a video as good as possible. Good meaning aesthetic, proper, and interesting, whereas Cinematography is not ony about aesthetic but also about storytelling, Cinematography is Involving design thinking to solve the problems. Not just a film or movie, promotional video and corporate profile video is also a part of it. The main difference between videography and cinematography is not about who you are, its about how you think. A good videographer can be a cinematographer and vice versa, and yes i agree about your opinion regarding the spectrum. Videography = Graphic Design Cinematography = Visual Communication Design

Cinematography has its roots in art, specifically painting. The “rule of thirds,” and the Golden Ratio were invented or perhaps recognized centuries before images moved across a screen. Videographers have progressively borrowed the cinema and painting techniques of composition, light and dark, background separation, etc. Even this video of yours has also borrowed those techniques from cinema, but that doesn’t mean it is cinematography, because it isn’t. Is their a line between cinematography and videography? Yes there is, but it’s fuzzy. I can't describe it, but I know it when I see it. You can create art by aping an older art form, but it doesn’t necessarily become that art form by doing so. Cinematography is nearly always narrative and builds on yet another art form, that of acting. But aren’t there also actors in TV commercials. Yes, of course. So you used a couple of actors, lit it like a movie in your commercial to sell your product. Does that make it cinema? I for one, don’t think so. Cinema is first and foremost, theatre. Commercials are not. You could hire Emmanuel Lubezki, Rachel Morrison, or Roger Deakins to light and shoot it for you, but it would still be, just another commercial. So, how can I tell the difference between cinematography and videography? Not by knowing which camera you used, that’s for certain. Since there is a two-way migration of film techniques and technology, the only difference remaining is purpose. What are you trying to achieve? Talking heads on RU-vid is not cinematic. Content is the only thing that matters.

Going back to the days of film and eventually television, those making movies wanted a term to differentiate themselves. It became more important once movie cameras became more affordable and home movies became popular. Suddenly everyone became a film or movie maker. The term was no longer special. Now if you make movies meant to be shown on the big screen in the cinema, you are a cinematographer. It really drives them nuts with everyone on the internet is putting up movies and trying to make them to be "cinematic". Photographers never felt that need. You take photos? You're a photographer. You're good but moving pictures? Everyone has to be put in their place. It's so petty.

Cinematography is “cinematic” videography. Videography is just capturing of videos. That simple. Broadcasters are raw videographers. Cinematographers are “film” makers. 🙂

Videography is just cinematography without noticeable color grading and misuse of ND filters! Nothing spells realism as proper videography. Cinema is fantasy.
