1AC Camera / Focuspuller in Thailand, Daily Rate:
6,000.00฿1AC (also called the 1st assistant camera, 1st AC, first AC, or focus puller) has one main job: they sit next to the camera during filming and operate the lens’s focusing ring. The role of the focus puller is to keep the right subject in focus throughout each scene. A focus puller is a member of the camera crew responsible for adjusting the focus of a film or video camera during a shot. The focus puller uses a follow-focus device, which allows them to precisely adjust the lens’s focus while filming.

- Pulling track pins into place for each take
- Setting up the track pins in each take according to the director or producer’s specifications
- Setting up shots according to the script or other instructions from producers, directors or cinematographers
2AC Camera / Mechanic in Thailand, Daily Rate:
3,500.00฿The second assistant camera (also called the 2nd assistant camera, 2nd AC, second AC, or clapper loader) works the “clapper board,” the slate that marks the beginning of each take, keeping footage organized for the post-production team. The second AC keeps the information updated on the slate—for instance, which roll, scene, and take is being filmed—and claps it in front of the camera. Additional tasks that the second AC owns on set include:
- Support the first AC during rehearsal by watching where actors move during scenes and placing focus marks on the ground in tape. This lets the first AC know where to pull focus while filming.
- Keep a report of every shot, including individual camera settings. This ensures that during subsequent takes and reshoots, the footage looks consistent.
- Help the first AC maintain and organize camera equipment and, if the movie is being shot on film, loading film stock into the camera.
