Are you ready to take your shooting to the next level? Go To Team is offering a unique opportunity to Chief Photographers and local TV Cameramen. This position is designed for photographers that want to gain enough experience to shoot, run audio, and light at the highest level. We have successfully run this apprenticeship for seven years and five of our former apprentices are now full-time Directors of Photography for Go To Team.
This position will be based in Charlotte, NC and you will work regularly with our Director of Photography and Go To Team Partner, Skip Clark (former apprentice) for clients like, NASCAR on FOX, Turner Sports (TNT), Speed Channel, NFL Films, HBO Sports, ABC News, NBC News and America’s Most Wanted.
