Developing a shot list from a screenplay is a little like plotting your newborn baby's path to the presidency. One minute ago, there was infinite choice -- two minutes ago, this thing was just an idea -- and now all possibility must be stripped away until there's only one plan, the plan that will become the movie.
As the writer, the process is humbling. I typed out the scenes imagining how a great master with an unlimited budget might shoot it. Now, reality has checked in. Perhaps I won't be able to shoot the Army of the Deep emerging from their aquatic caves to slaughter their gill-deprived cousins. At least not for $1,000.
(For the record, there is no Army of the Deep in the $1KF... or is there?)
As the director, however, I've had an enormous amount of fun. I feel very fortunate, as I've been able to watch this movie again and again in my head. I've probably seen the $1KF 40 times and we haven't even shot a frame of footage yet. To structure out a scene, I lock my brain into Tivo mode -- stopping, rewinding, skipping ahead. Every time I see a new shot, I log it and move on. I can do Tivo one better, though. If I decide I don't like the framing of the shot, I get to re-shoot it on the spot. If only editing was this easy.
Which, of course, leads me to the point of the entire process. It's my job to be sure that we capture all of the pieces our editor is going to need to build the movie I want to make. One method is to shoot every scene from a set of standard angles: Put the actors in place. Shoot a wide. Shoot a medium. Shoot a close-up of actor A. Shoot a close-up of actor B. Move on to the next scene. Repeat.
That approach will make you a movie, but it probably won't make you a good one. It's the directors job -- shit, duty -- to put his or her stamp on every scene so that the edit can't help but reflect that director's plan.
For example: Two characters are arguing in a bedroom. One possible shot list looks like this:
Shot A: Close on Harry
Shot B: Close on Sally
Shot C: Wide on both Harry and Sally
You'll get the point across, but you'd better hope the dialogue sings because there's nothing else going on here. Instead of relying on the old standbys, why not analyze the scene further? Who has the power here? What are the issues? Are there objects in the room that have significance? Each answer will inform your shot choices. If there is a moment in the argument where it's nearly at an end, consider shooting the actors in the same frame, close. When the argument is at its peak, consider throwing a barrier (like the bed, perhaps) between them. If you get it right, you might even snare some of that "symbolism" I've heard so much about.
As it stands today, the screenplay is 99 pages, leading to a shot list of 17 pages. And that's just the beginning. We've already started a script breakdown, and now we'll identify key sequences that need to make the transition to storyboards. The realities of our locations will change the shot list and the 'boards, as will any script revisions that happen between now and the first day of principle photography.
It's just the first step, but it makes all the difference. Especially if you want your kid to be president.

One part of casting any of
One part of casting any of the Harry Potter spells that people often overlook
is the use of a magic wand. Each of the characters in the book carries a wand
that they choose (or that “chooses” them!), and each of the major spells is
cast using a wand. While it is theoretically possible for a wizard or witch
to cast a spell without a wand (such as the unexplained phenomena that
surround the young Harry in the first couple of books), the wand is used to
focus the will of the spell-caster,Football Boots Sale and certain
wands even add to the power of the spell.
If you are looking to buy a Harry Potter wand for yourself, or as a
present,Harry Potter
Wands the first thing that you will discover is that there is quite a
wide variety of styles,Louboutin
Sale, and price ranges available. It can be quite confusing, so we’ve
done our best to boil the choices down for you, and to explain the
differences in wand types.
In the books, the wands are always made of wood,Hermes Birkin and they usually have
a core of some special material such as unicorn hair, phoenix feathers, or
dragon heartstring. The wood can be any type of wood such as ash or maple or
mahogany. There are many very nice wooden wands available for sale. The thing
is that these wands don’t always look like the wands in the movies. When it
came time to make the movies, the filmmakers decided to add to the mystery
and atmosphere by creating very special looking wands. Many of the wands used
in the movies don’t necessarily bear a close resemblance to the wands that
are described in the books. As an example,Christian Louboutin Pumps the
“Elder Wand” (also known as Dumbledore’s wand) is pictured as a wand that
is long and narrow, but which has a series of bumps or knots running down its
length. This type of structure is difficult to make out of wood, so these
prop wands were made out of a material called resin, which is basically a
type of plastic that has been molded to look like it is carved from a piece
of wood. The resin allows more flexibility in the design, and it is strong,
and once the mold has been made, it is easy to produce many more wands that
look exactly alike, whereas a true wooden wand must be carved, which takes
more time.
