What’s the Difference between a Production Company and a Videographer?

While you're researching for the creation of your next video production, you will come across the terms Production Company and Videographer. Are they same and what are the differences between them? Simply put; a Production Company is a team of filmmaking professionals whereas Videographers are usually a one- or two-man band. 

What are the advantages or disadvantages of a Production Company compared to a Videographer? With a video production company like Caldwell Entertainment consisting of a team of videographers, we can offer a broader scope of video production services. This can include scripting, concept development, sourcing locations, and securing cast along with the full range of production and post-production (editing) services. A Videographer will usually be skilled in only two or three of these areas. Many of them only offer basic production and post-production (editing) services. They typically won’t look after locations, casting, scripting etc. Furthermore, many Brisbane or Gold Coast video production companies are more established businesses whereas Videographers are often entry level career practitioners who could be here one day and gone the next. In your search for the right Production Company or Videographer, it is always good practice to look at how long those you are researching have been around for.
