About the Role

We’re looking for a passionate and reliable Assistant Cinematographer to join our creative team at NxtWave. You’ll work closely with senior cinematographers and production leads to support all video shoots — from setting up cameras and lights to ensuring smooth shoot operations and data handling.

This is a great opportunity for someone who loves being on set, learning the craft of cinematography, and wants to grow into a full-time DoP role in the future.


What You’ll Do

  • Camera & Lighting Setup: Help set up cameras, lenses, tripods, gimbals, lighting rigs, and monitors for each shoot.
  • Focus & Framing: Assist with focus pulling, framing, white balance, and exposure adjustments.
  • Gear Management: Track and maintain batteries, memory cards, filters, and accessories; ensure backups are ready.
  • Safety & Cable Management: Keep the shooting area safe and organized.
  • Footage Handling: Transfer footage safely, label folders correctly, and hand over data to the post-production team.
  • Location Preparation: Support shoot recce, on-location setup, and equipment transportation.
  • On-Set Support: Be ready for quick adjustments, resets, and smooth equipment handling during live shoots.


What We’re Looking For

  • 1–3 years of experience assisting in video shoots, film sets, or branded content.
  • Familiarity with Sony, Canon, or Blackmagic camera systems and lighting gear like LED panels and softboxes.
  • Basic understanding of lighting, exposure, and camera settings.
  • Physically fit to handle and transport gear when needed.
  • Punctual, disciplined, and able to work well with a team.
  • A positive attitude and eagerness to learn cinematography.


Bonus: Interest in becoming a Director of Photography (DoP) in the long term.

What You’ll Gain

  • Mentorship from senior cinematographers and creative directors.
  • Hands-on experience across different types of shoots — reels, masterclasses, brand films, testimonials, and campus events.
  • Exposure to end-to-end production and post-production workflows.
  • A clear growth path into cinematography, camera operation, or technical direction roles.
  • Be part of one of India’s fastest-growing creative education brands.


Key Skills

  • Camera Operation (Sony / Canon / Blackmagic)
  • Lighting Setup & Equipment Handling
  • Focus Pulling & Framing
  • On-Set Coordination & Gear Management
  • Video Production Workflow & Data Handling
