The camera operator uses motion picture camera to film movies, television programmes and television adverts. They are also responsible for physically operating the camera and maintaining the composition and camera angles throughout the filming of each shot/scene of the production. When it comes to filming there are different types of camera operators-
Sometimes the camera operators aren't just behind the camera, there are times when filing big productions like movies that have big cranes shots therefore the camera operator will sit on cranes and follow the action while crane operators move them into position.
Also there are people called "Steadicam Operators", who mount a harness and carry the camera on their shoulders to provide a clear picture while they move about the action.
There are also roles like "assistant camera operators". These people are mainly responsible for jobs like focus pulling, loading film, and operating the clapper.
