Videographers are the primary source for capturing the video images and sound that producers use to create their programs. Contemporary production practices dictate that producers move beyond the confines of the studio and go to the story directly, regardless of where it is. The ability to record high quality material on location, despite its limitations, is the prime asset of the videographer.

• A videographer operates portable equipment with the objective of recording video and audio for use in a production.
• The videographer should be capable of offering direction to on-camera talent and should be concerned with the quality of the talent's performance. 
• Studio/location production personnel operate as part of a television production crew.  They are required to assemble and disassemble sets, move and hang fixtures from a studio grid, assist the lighting director, and setup and/or strike equipment after a production.
• During actual production videographers must be able to competently perform in the role of floor director, camera operator, production assistant, robotic camera operator and teleprompter operator.
• The videographer must drive the state vehicles in a responsible manner. 
• The videographer must also maintain log sheet for regular maintenance.

The candidate will be an energetic self starter and have at least four years' experience shooting brodacast news and or feature packages; the ability to frame scenes and follow the action on location; direct talent; technical mastery of cameras and the ability to use accompanying equipment such as lens, mixers, tripods, lighting fixtures and various microphones.
