Cross-posted from Wonderful Machine. [By Jen Warren] “On the set of a photography production, one of the most important people is the one who secures and processes the images: the digitech. It’s important to find someone that you can trust to ensure the culling and organizing of your deliverables goes smoothly, making the digitech a vital part of any shoot.
Digitechs are tasked with managing your images in real-time as they’re being shot. They are responsible for transferring the files to a computer, processing them, and creating multiple backups. This could include anything from applying useful file names for the images to organizing them for the photographer and client. Digitechs can also be expected to quickly and quietly deal with technical problems — such as fixing camera gear — as they arise throughout the day.”
