Technical.

Technical jobs in media are things like making sure all the equipment on set is set up and running smoothly. Technical jobs such as a camera operator, they have to have the camera on the right setting and make sure they're filming everything at the right time and use there instincts for what will look best as the final outcome will be represented through the camera: For example if something did go wrong on set with the technical equipment, they would be the ones everybody relied on to fix the problem and make it work to a quality standard again. I think this job is more in demand than others as if something goes wrong with the technical side of things, not many others will be trained to fix the problem and if that happens on a set of some sort while something live is going on it'll need to be sorted in a short amount of time otherwise the entire production would fall apart. A big part of technical things in media going successfully is about timing. The timing has to be near enough perfect, if not perfect, every single time. Otherwise nothing will work. Working in this type of job field means you could either be working freelance or be with a company that has a regular role for you. Usually it's freelance.
