Film-maker in arcade: movie getting shot (5,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

video camera

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'film-maker' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'arcade movie getting shot' is the wordplay.
'getting' says to put letters next to each other.
'shot' indicates anagramming the letters.
'arcade'+'movie'='arcademovie'
'arcademovie' is an anagram of 'VIDEO CAMERA'.

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for video camera that I've seen before include "Movie recorder" , "Film-maker's equipment" , "Device recording film" .)
