What is a shot list? How it is useful? How will we use it?

A shot list is a full list/log of all the shots you are going to film. It also is the order you are going to shoot your specific shots in, in the filming process. It is very helpful and serves the purpose of saving a lot of time and not going over the same or similar shots over and over again because you know what shots you already have/need/want. It also brings a sense of offence and helps the director to just move on swiftly after every scene is done. It really helped us in the planning and prepping of our filming and our shot list was a key piece of help in our altogether filming process. When film companies are on a small budget a shot list is a great way to save time and time equals money in the filming industry.
