The Shot List demystifies this essential filmmaking blueprint. A shot list outlines every planned shot, translating scripts and storyboards into camera instructions to avoid missing coverage. Key elements include scene/shot numbers, descriptions, types (e.g., Close Up), angles, movements, lenses, audio notes, and special cues. It boosts efficiency, saves time/money, ensures editing coverage, and aligns the crew’s vision. Create it by breaking down scripts scene-by-scene, referencing storyboards for pacing and emotions.
