Career prospects
If you are new to video production, you will usually only take on individual tasks in a team at the beginning. After the video course, you may be given a job as a production assistant, assistant director, camera assistant, lighting assistant or assistant editor. Over time, you may be able to expand your range of tasks and responsibilities and implement your own projects as a video producer or take on management responsibility. In any case, a good video producer needs to gain a lot of experience in order to continuously improve her own work.
Video producers work in the marketing or communications departments of larger companies, at media companies, in advertising agencies, in the film industry and in television. As a video producer, you also have the option of self-employment. Good contacts create correspondingly good job opportunities.
In online marketing, the integration of banners, animations, product, explanatory and image videos on a website can improve findability, increase traffic and increase the length of time users spend on the site. This is often done in the context of activities in media agencies or marketing and communication departments as content managers.
Further training opportunities for video producers
There are many opportunities for further development after video courses. For example, you can use the knowledge you have gained as a video journalist or vlogger. You can also specialize in a type of film such as documentaries, commercials or music videos. Further training to become an online marketing manager or web publisher also follows on from the course.
