Shot List Tips for Filmmakers - Lining shots on your script

On the surface, a shot list communicates what coverage you intend for a scene. But we all know once you get to set, something always has to give. You either lose, combine or even add shots to ensure you have coverage by the end of your shoot day.

So how can we use a shot list to be better prepared? We’ll line the script to help us decide what different types of camera shots will give us the best coverage and prepare us for the inevitable changes once on set.

We don’t go into adding hash marks/squiggly lines for off-camera dialogue. I find that more useful during production in the hands of the script supervisor than in pre-production.

Welcome to Pull My Focus, adventures in the world of digital filmmaking, where we provide you with the tips, tricks, and techniques you need to produce great video.
