Join the Society of Camera Operators for Speed Mentoring—a unique opportunity to connect one-on-one with veteran camera operators. Whether you’re curious about perfecting your shot, navigating set dynamics, or building a successful career behind the lens, this is your chance to ask the questions that matter most. Gain valuable insight, insider tips, and real-world advice from experienced professionals who’ve seen it all.
Attendees will be spilt into small mentee groups for focused mentor rotations. To close out the event, we’ll gather for a Member Mix Up— casual networking with hosted light refreshments. Come ready with your questions.
