How a Cinematography Shot List is made Quickly

[@dhairyasharma6627]

Today i was shooting a short for director (i was the cinematographer) i broke the 180° rule purposefully with motion, and the director was amazed and asked me which film school i went, i showed him this channel😌

[@silentwitness536]

thats nothing new. Thats literally the most common way of breaking the rule. Its old as the hills.

[@asherpikesgoldenmoralcinem5770]

@@silentwitness536 but many are afraid or inexperienced to do it. Or get it wrong, chad here must have done it very well to warrant surprise

[@silentwitness536]

@@asherpikesgoldenmoralcinem5770 or the director was inexperienced. Watch Scorses films and he does it a lot. Many long takes do it too, where the camera moves around the house, around the actor.

[@asherpikesgoldenmoralcinem5770]

@@silentwitness536 That’s true more experienced directors might not have been surprised, I’m guessing though that he wasn’t working with a Hollywood scale director. Maybe just a less experienced indie filmmaker as you said.

Thanks for the short lesson on “shot division” . It will be really helpful to us if you could upload more videos on “ how to write shot division in detail” for independent filmmakers; all the camera angles/subject position in the frame/ lens / dolly movement etc.

Wow imagine to have so may files to edit for each scene...for a 2 hours movie...crazy how they can put together all these + colorgrading + sound fx + speach + b roll footage

[@qwaeofficial]

great video!!

[@jasonperry253]

Great video! Would be curious to see how a documentary shot list is made when you don't always know the action or the outcome until you start shooting. Do you create a shot list of everything you know you have control over?

[@wolfcrow]

Thanks. Yes, I do. No point creating a shot list after you've started shooting.

[@christianschonberger9695]

Great topic! I am planning on a short film on Super 16 film. I will shoot and edit on cheap digital on an available set frst and use it as a template for the shooting on set. I know this requires a lot of rehearsing and not much room for improvisation. I think it should work.

[@johnp515]

Very, very few of the best movies ever made involved any kind of camera set up improvisations. Some dialogue improvisation is still possible with your plan.

[@christianschonberger9695]

@@johnp515 yes that's the plan. Seen a lot of student and "first time" films where the shots just don't match. I learned as much from poorly made films as I did from great ones. It all has to be planned carefully to flow in a natural way. There should be a little redundancy though such as reaction shots where you can hide dialog edits. I would never demand dialog to be performed 100% as written. Input from your actors is very important.

[@anthonydavis4829]

Your teachings are incredible. Clear, to the point. Way too much fill in other instructional videos.

[@REE-Animation]

New information or add to the story in any way… I feel like character setup should be in there too. You can have many scenes where we get to know the characters without moving the story forward. Like the dinner table scene in reservoir dogs, or the “wife story” scene in saving private ryan.
