It's all the director's job, so the director should look at the monitor when shooting. The camera takes a suitable picture according to the director's requirements.

2. Photographer:

The cameraman's job is to control the shots needed to shoot the plot, among which the programs "Script" and "story board" of film and television drama types are very clear. The photographer's job is to finish shooting the scenes in the script.

Photographers need to control:

1, shooting scene, picture composition

2, lens use, aircraft position setting

3. Chromaticity and contrast of the picture

4, the speed of moving the lens
