The videographer is someone who utilizes moving or still pictures to tell a story to an audience. Sometimes the videographer works with made-up scripts, special effects and indoor sets that will help communicate the story. At other times the videographer goes out into a community to videotape actual events and interviews with local people that will help communicate the story. These videos of actual people and events are called documentaries. 4, record 1, English, - video%20artist
