There are many different areas of videographer jobs. A videographer can work as a freelancer or be hired by a company. Videographers work for real estate companies, film production companies, travel agencies and television stations. Freelance wedding and corporate videographers tend to be in high demand when they build a reputation for quality work.
Wedding videographers should have a portfolio on their website along with testimonials from couples to help them get more clients. Some freelance wedding videographers may start out with smaller events like a children’s birthday party. Companies tend to be good sources of jobs as freelance videographers, as they may need corporate events such as recorded seminars.
Real estate companies can hire part-time or full-time videographers. Real estate videographers meet with clients looking to sell their homes. In these types of videographer jobs, the videographer shoots both interior and exterior scenes of the house for use in online home tour videos. The cameraman can also take still shots of homes for use in print publications. Some real estate videographers have their own businesses and can also prepare websites for real estate agents.
Entertainment videographer jobs include working on documentaries or other films, as well as shooting outdoor or location pieces for television studios. A videographer can also work in the television industry as a video editor who takes parts of other videos and turns them into a cohesive footage. Video editors can work under tough deadlines as it can take a long time to get to the final edit. Sound and lighting are the responsibility of some television or film studio videographers. Videographers can also work for music companies to shoot music videos.
A dream job for some videographers is shooting vacation videos for travel agencies to use to promote their vacation packages online or in television commercials. Travel videographer jobs tend to be difficult to get into because amateur videographers can work at too low a cost for a professional videographer to match. However, travel videography projects can work well for a freelance videographer who has built industry benchmarks.
In some freelance videographer jobs, videographers take and sell stock photography to web designers who create commercial websites. Photographs include photographs of people who have consented to having their likeness used on commercial websites or in printed materials. For example, images of a group of diverse people dressed in office clothes are often used on the homepage of a company’s website.
