The call sheet which we produced for our main shoot. We ensured that we had a clear schedule, and divided timings between the crew and our actress to help her prepare separately. |
Before
each shoot, we created a call sheet. The purpose of the call sheet is to
outline when we required crew members and actors to be on set, to detail
contact details in case any problems arose and to include a risk assessment to
ensure the safety and wellbeing of everyone on set. We, therefore, felt that
this was another very important document to help organise the shoot, as it
clearly broke down the day’s itinerary into timings to ensure efficiency, and
explained to our actress what was to happen during the day’s filming – thus
preventing awkwardness or the need to explain why they were giving up their time
before we were due to film.
Though
our call sheet tried to strike a balance between a simple plan and a
professional call sheet, in hindsight it perhaps would have been useful to
integrate a costume and props list into the list, as this would have allowed a
greater time period for our actress to pre-plan rather than once a separate
costume and props list had been produced. However, once our call sheet (with
all other relevant information) had been produced, this allowed us to progress
one step further with shooting, as we had proven that we had a clear production
schedule, with our location and safety precautions when conducting the shoot
noted.
