As a new producer of a film I'm planning to direct, I would like to understand the difference between a cinematographer and a Dp? Who operates the camera also?

Expand commentI like to have an operator - as I like to shoot with two cameras at the same time - which has become the norm. it saves time and makes the day. one camera on two shot, one on a CU - etc. They shoot from the same angle or up to about 30% off. I like operators because then I can concentrate in what the lighting looks like as the actors move, look at the monitors and come up with the next framing/camera positioning, etc. Sometimes i will operate. Lots of younger DPs like to operate.
On my sets, which are small crew, I like to have a camera operator which may fit any of the titles you have listed but usually go by DP. If titles are important to the people working on the project you may have to credit them accordingly.
About got it all covered in the answers above these days everyone is doing more then double duty just to even land a paying project or that's the case here on the Indie Scene and I am pretty sure its like that all over these days.
Having visited this platform for the past months, I must say Brisbane filmmakers are lacking behind with networking.. I can hardly network with anyone from here.. How can Stage32 network more of Brisbane filmmakers?
Hey Henrovee, if you go up to the connect section on the top menu bar, you can search people by their location and profession. might help you narrow down some Brisbane Filmmakers, or at least people nearby.

Expand commentNobody knows about your area... . You could start BLOGGING with the Synergy Collaborative. . Use an optimized "viral" blog, to post about all the wonderful attractions and filming locations that your area has to offer. . If you are using a pre-optimized blog, it won't be long before those "KEYWORDS" that you use will be searched by "like-minded" people with common interests and passions as yourself. . You will begin to ATTRACT the attention your area deserves.
@magicBrad thanx for the suggestion.. Will do as said..
