Once I'd finished my script breakdown I had to write up my shots into a shot list. To organise this and make it simpler for both myself and the Director, I organised the shots by shooting days apart from the opening sequence as this is separate so we'll likely be filming this at the same time as Day 1 - Tanya.

When writing up the shots, I listed what we'll see in the shot, the type of shot it is and if it's locked off or handheld. At the beginning of each section I wrote in the interviews, although I couldn't decide how to explain when to change the shot during the interview or when to change the lens. However, as I've detailed it in my Script Breakdown which question to change the shot and which question would be best for a lens change I felt this wasn't needed in the shot list.

Although I've been quite detailed in my first page, towards the end of the list, specifically as we get into the experts interviews, I've noted that I don't have much in the way of coverage to go with the experts interviews, even with the shots I'm getting during their interviews. I may have to re-look at this section of the list and the documentary and start to consider more footage I could get.

Now I've written up the shot list I've also noticed that with the theatre, I haven't noted any footage to establish the location, the setting or even the performance. This gives us next to nothing prior to the performance and the audience would want to see where we are, what's going on and also have build up of tension going into Tanya's performance. Although this is only the first version and I may have to do another script breakdown with new drafts as they come in so this will likely change.
