directors of photography, and camera assistants from previous projects or through interviews with the
producer.

Rapid expansion of the entertainment market, especially motion picture production and distribution, will
spur growth of camera operators. Those who succeed in landing a salaried job or attracting enough work to

to rapidly changing technologies and adept at operating a business. Many are employed by independent
television stations, local affiliate stations of television networks or broadcast groups, large cable and
television networks, or smaller independent production companies.
