Students may pursue career paths in camera, sound, and lighting, such as camera operator, assistant camera, director of photography, grip, sound mixer, best boy, gaffer, and others. Post-production careers include work as an assistant editor, colorist, editor, compositor, sound designer, and visual effects editor.
