Hi Kelly.
Videographers:
A videographer is someone who is skilled in the capture of moving images called video. Essentially, a videographer is a cameraman, but the definition of the role has expanded to any skills that are attached to capturing video for a project. This can include staging, lighting, audio pickup mechanics, use of video equipment and various video capture effects for storytelling purposes.
The effects are usually determined by the equipment used by the videographer. They can, for example, use a hand-held camera to achieve a raw, uncontrolled feeling. Or, they can work a fly over with a drone camera. Videographers can also move the camera or stage a scene to effect emotions, the pacing of a story, and even the transition from scene to scene.
Video Editors:
A video editor is someone who is skilled in the creation of video productions. They take all the raw footage from a videographer or client, and work it into a story, a promotional video, commercial or movie. Video editors are skilled storytellers, and in the software side of video creation. They can alter the colors, lighting, apply special effects and animation, as well as edit audio and music. Often the video editor is also highly skilled in the creation of media for multiple platforms being well versed in social media marketing, formats for distribution and data management.
It’s not uncommon for videographers to send footage to a video editor for post production work and distribution. It’s also common for a video editor to hire a videographer and edit their video.
Hope this clarifies...!

Videographers
Videographers capture moments, such as weddings, as well as sporting events, and footage for news and advertisements. Once they meet with a client and outline the details of the project, including timetables, budgets, and the subject of the video, videographers then determine what equipment they will need. These professionals utilize different cameras, lenses, and lighting equipment. Before filming, they should also determine the filters, camera angles, and framing techniques that will best suit the subject. They may also be required to do some pre-production work, such as reading any scripts and making a list of necessary shots.
Job responsibilities of a videographer include:
Setting up sliders, dollies, tripods, and any other equipment, as well as adjusting cameras and lighting if necessary during filming
Watching the footage as it is captured to ensure the camera is in focus and capturing the focus of the project
Gathering b-roll footage for larger productions that will fill in any gaps or details in the story
Storing and maintaining equipment in between shoots
Video Editors

If they work for a video production company, these creative minds may be required to train new and junior editors. Additionally, most of their work is done in an office setting, but some projects and companies may allow for remote work done in a home office. Once filming is complete, they may cut segments to fit the larger production, as well as bring the footage together into a kind of story.
