Videography is a term that relates to the process of making movies or recording moving images. The devices used for storage are pretty varied from flashes or memory sticks to external hard disks. Even if both cinematography and videography pretty much refer to the same thing, cinematography uses a material support to record on, while videography relies directly on electronic media. As for the linguistic origin of the concept, Latin has again had much to contribute to the invention of the term as video in this old language means I see whereas graphy refers to writing.
Videography is a word that was coined in our modern times, because even a few years ago, the process was still novelty. They used the word cinematography instead of the one under discussion here. But with the coming of the 21st century and the boom in technological development, the need for a new word arose in order to make a difference between the two processes that involved different stocking possibilities. Then, videography gained a lot from the growth of the Internet because the segmentation of the market and the extent in applications have increased proportionately. The segments of this market could be event video, broadcast video, corporate video and the list could continue.
Besides image shooting and recording, videography has come to include even newer types of movies and here we can talk about digital animation, streaming, video blogging, video games, slide shows and more. This rapidly growing process, that has gained such prominence in modern times often require computer processing and editing. Animation therefore relies on computer programs for extensive productions. The applications of videography are included in mobile phone technologies as we can take pictures and record videos with the in-built camera of the cellular.
Finally, videography refers to an artist’s music and video collection as compared to filmography, which means the collection of all the movies in which an actor has performed, or discography, applies to a singer’s released albums.
