Director of Photography

Job Description

Quick Reality Check
Experience level: 2+ years → this is junior-to-mid, not a true “Director” role in film terms
Role scope: Very broad (shooting + editing + supervising + strategy)
Location: Connaught Place (central but expensive area)
Industry: Digital marketing agency (fast-paced, client-driven work)
👍 What’s Good
Creative control: You’ll define lighting, composition, and visual style
Portfolio growth: Agency work = lots of varied brand content
End-to-end exposure: From shoot to post-production (great for learning fast)
Structured schedule: Mon–Fri, 10–7 (not always guaranteed in media, but stated)
⚠️ What to Watch Out For
“DOP” title inflation: In agencies, this often means senior videographer + editor + team lead
Workload:
You’re expected to:
shoot
direct
edit
manage teams
handle vendors
→ That’s multiple roles combined
Salary ambiguity: “Best in Industry” = unclear; could be average unless negotiated
Immediate joiner requirement: Usually means urgent hiring → sometimes high workload or turnover
🎯 Should You Apply?

Apply if:

You already shoot + edit professionally
You want fast portfolio growth in ads/social content
You’re okay with agency pace and multitasking

Think twice if:

You want purely cinematic / film-style DOP work
You don’t want editing responsibilities
You prefer structured, low-pressure environments
