First up, there are endless jobs when the credits start rolling after a movie or TV show is over. Some are pretty self-explanatory like the caterer, while others require some explanation, like a best boy. The role of a camera operator may seem like an easy one to understand, but there things that a camera operator has to do that aren’t nearly as simple as you might think, and Vanity Fair illustrates why with the help of John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum camera operator Oliver Cary.
