Call sheets & Shootboards

We used adapted versions of the conventional storyboard and shoot schedule and combined them to make shootboards. These give us both on the spot visual representations of the shots and the scheduled timings for each of these shots for the duration of that day. Our call sheets are essentially the same for all of our shoots, only ever really changing call times, set and, in two cases, cast. The call sheets give a basic outline of the whole day, noting down all emergency procedure and informing cast and crew of the times they are needed. These documents essentially work as guidelines for us to stick to when we are on set.

28th-29th October 

Our first shoot has been scheduled for the 28th and 29th, in which we have decided to get the vast majority of our location shots completed. We decided to prioritise the location shots because we felt that these shots posed the biggest risk of having retakes because there are so many factors taken out of our control by being on location.


 On the shoot board there are so few timings, because we just can't be sure of how long our shots will take. There are too many uncertainties for us to be able to schedule anything, one thing we are confident in is that the shots will not take any longer than two full days.


We have spread out the shots according to the various locations, with the shots in Central London on Tuesday and the rest in North London on the Wednesday because the locations are within a fee miles of each other.








We opted not to make a call sheet for this shoot, because it would be near enough impossible to stick to the timings due to the amount left out of our control because we are shooting in central London, as well as the fact that we would be unable to even make a basic  one, because we wouldn't be able to input the majority of required information. Furthermore, considering that it is only my group required on this day and we are all aware of the plan, it would be an unnecessary document on this occasion.

3rd November 

This was our very first shoot in the studio, so we opted for an ambitious approach to this shoot; hoping to get through all our main three performance shots and some of the smaller conceptual shots.

We opted not to make a call sheet for this shoot, because the cast and crew consisted of solely our group and after creating our first call sheet, we were all aware of the health and safety procedures; as well as using our shootboard for scheduling references.


11th November

This is planned to be by far our most challenging shoot bringing in people from outside our group, media and even the school to be in our shots. The plan is to get all of the shots which require other people out of the way as early as possible, so that if any retakes are needed, then we have the time to let them know or get other people if required.

19th November 

The main focus on this shoot was promo shots, however since we still had outstanding shots, it made most sense to get them out of the way first since they were very straightforward.

This was our last shoot, so we left making a shootboard or call sheet until we had decided whether or not any retakes were needed. After concluding that a new shot was needed, this was the main priority for this shoot, with the remaining time used for promo shots to go on the ancillary texts.
