When using PIC for this purpose, it is necessary to select a PIC microcontroller with Fs Device/Host/OTG Capability like :-

PIC24 and dsPIC33 Families

PIC32MZ Family

PIC32MX2/4/5/6/7 Families

 

It is also necessary to know programming languages(Embedded C,Assembly or Hex if you can) to program the PIC and the working of usb devices and instructions on how to make the webcam interact with the PIC.
