Shotlisting

Shotlisting is one of the most improtant parts of the preproduction stages as it states exactly which shots are needed to be captured and any other information e.g. lighting that is to be sorted out with it.

This makes it easier to remember what to film on the day, by just following it. On these sheets we wrote down the specific shot types that we needed e.g. close ups, extreme close ups and midshots. We decided to shoot mainly closeups as these were most frequent in the music videos that we had viewed during the research stages and are also commonly found in our genre of music. This is because they allow more emotion (facial) and precision (instrumental) to be seen.
