Videography is the art and practice of capturing moving images using video cameras and other recording equipment.
It involves various processes, including filming, editing, and producing videos for a range of purposes, such as storytelling, advertising, education, events, and entertainment. Videography combines technical skills—like camera operation, lighting, and audio recording—with creative elements, such as composition, narrative structure, and visual style, to create engaging and impactful visual content.
Videography differs from cinematography in terms of scale (as it’s typically smaller scale) and medium (being recorded electronically, as opposed to on film).
