Camera Operator, The Master of the Shots
Get your shot sheets (if they are being used) from the director and attach them to the back of the camera. Make sure that you have sufficient cable to reach the furthermost position you will occupy. While operating the camera, the pan and tilt locks are to remain unlocked at all times. Locking down a camera shot during a rehearsal or production is unacceptable in most studio operations! On the other hand, never leave your camera without first locking the pan and tilts locks and capping the lens.
