Information about Cinematography and Film Production

From Education-Portal.com:

A cinematographer is responsible for planning every shot in a movie or television show, considering camera angles, lighting, and editing. A film producer then takes this film and transforms it into something useful--something that can be viewed and enjoyed by others. As the movie industry continues to expand, the demand for cinematographers and film producers increases.

While not all cinematographers and film producers have earned degrees, they must both certain undergo some sort of formal training. They must, after all, understand the technical aspects of filmmaking, such as how to use all equipment or how certain adjustments in angle or lighting transform the image. There are a number of schools, colleges, and universities offering such programs.
