Just as photography is capturing still images, videography means the capture of moving images. This might be on a digital camera, videotape, or any streaming media. 

You don’t need a formal qualification to get a foothold in this field, however, you do need to know your subject well, from the basics of shooting a quality video to the final production processes. Alison’s Videography Hub will help you master the necessary skills and training. Hard work and determination should see you the rest of the way. 

A professional videographer needs both skills, knowledge and equipment to function well. Basic equipment would include a good camera, lighting, a microphone and a tripod. As an amateur, you can create better footage by taking care of a few fundamentals. Make sure the backdrop is not cluttered or distracting and provide plenty of light but don’t have your subject between the camera and a window.

There are many types of videography to get involved in. You may be interested in documentary making or videoing weddings or other events. It may involve creating videos to promote a brand or a product. More recently, videographers have been used to record aerial footage from drones.
