Want to be a photography assistant

You don’t need to buy a machine. As a photography assistant, you are responsible for keeping the equipment. First understand your company’s equipment model, then collect some relevant instructions, and pay attention to the maintenance of the equipment. You won’t be asked to shoot at the beginning, and you don’t need to master photography skills. Pay more attention to how the photographers in the company use light, and understand their habits, equipment, and working methods! The photographer's equipment must be carefully prepared according to the work plan every day, and it must be packed away and returned to its original place after use. Become familiar with the working system in the studio as soon as possible. Once you get started, it will be easier for you to communicate with the photographer, it will be easier for them to work with you, and you will have more opportunities to touch equipment and practice. If you don’t have basic photography knowledge at the beginning, you should read more, learn more, ask more questions, and find some tutorials. For photography, you can read the New York Photography School tutorials to master the basic theoretical knowledge. You can practice with the company’s equipment in the future.
