Pre-produce shoots that don't improvise

Shot lists, location scouts, gear checks, and contingency plans making shoot days boring.

foundation~30 minVideo CreatorsPodcastersDocumentary Makers

Steps

  1. 1Write the one-sentence deliverable definition before anything else
  2. 2Shot list from the edit backwards: every shot has a destination
  3. 3Scout locations at shoot TIME of day for light and noise reality
  4. 4Gear checklist per shot type; batteries and media double what seems enough
  5. 5Contingency plan per risk: weather, noise, subject cancellation
  6. 6Confirm everyone 24h before with call sheet including parking/access notes

Common Pitfalls

  • ▲"We'll figure it out there" burning golden-hour hours
  • ▲Missing B-roll discovered in the edit
