Shot List; the shot list helps communicate the desired movement, fluidity and structure of the film. The cinematographer can grasp the shots in chronological order from the script to evaluate and express the movement of the film, applying detail from the narrative to shots.

From collaberating with the cinematographer in creating the shot list, it meant I could re-assess the detail of the script, mainly the length, and adapt detail through expressing the context of the shots to the cinemotographer. We focused on decreasing the amount of shots to compliment the simplistic and realistic quality that would create a continuous, relatable and believable piece. Working together meant I could alter the script at the point in which we found an error.Through communicating the imagery of the script to the cinematographer, I realised how easy it was to confuse what's written on paper to the vission of how different people can interpret it. The shot list takes the importance of detail from the script, such as where the camera is placed in the room and how a close-up can act as a different impact in different shots, and presents a chronological list from which the cinematographer can follow from.
This shot list can now help create the shot plan.

Shot Plan; a shot plan converts the shot list into a visual presentation. It gathers all the camera angles, movement, placing and shot numbers down on a sketch of the location. This design illustrates all the shots in a plan that will influence fluency on the day of filming; mainly providing the cinemotographer guidence.

Storyboard; the storyboard is a series of illustrations (the shots) to visually understand the shots in chronological order. The drawings give a brief representation of what the camera will capture and lays it out in a simplistic way where the cinematographer can understand the series of shots to create the media product.
