Create a shooting schedule and shot list for a video shoot
Social media and creative teams create a shooting schedule and shot list for a video shoot
Fits: Social media & content · Marketing & communications · Creative & media production · HR
In one hour, an idea becomes a running order with scenes, shots, locations and times. On the day of the shoot no shot is missing, and nobody stands around because it is unclear what comes next.
Is this for you?
- You film videos for social media yourselves, such as insights into the company, recruiting clips or product videos.
- So far, a lot happens spontaneously on the day of the shoot, and footage is missing during editing.
Take a video you want to film soon and write down the goal, length, channel, location and people involved. Have a shot list and schedule drafted with the template below and walk through them once in your head at the location.
How to go about it
- Define goal and format
- Gather the constraints
- Have a shot list drafted
- Build and check the schedule
- Clarify consent and rights
- Check against the plan after the shoot
