People think that all cameramen do is point the camera at things, but it’s a heck of a lot more complicated than that!

What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker is defensive about a job that looks easy from outside. Cameramen seem to just aim a camera, but he insists there's far more skill and effort involved than onlookers realize. It's a small, slightly wounded plea for people to respect unseen craft.
