Why creators need a shot list
Even a 10-row list saves reshoots. You know which inserts, reactions, and detail shots to grab before you wrap. Editors (including you, later) get coverage instead of hoping stock will fix gaps.
Free template columns
Copy these columns into Sheets, Notion, or a notes app:
| # | Shot | Framing | Move | Audio | ~Time | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Hook open | MCU | Static | VO / mic | 5s | Look to camera |
| 2 | Product hero | CU | Slow push | Room tone | 4s | Clean background |
| 3 | Hands demo | OTS | Handheld | Nat sound | 8s | Show button press |
- Framing: ECU / CU / MCU / MS / WS
- Move: static, pan, tilt, push, pull, handheld, gimbal
- Audio: VO, lav, boom, nat sound, music bed later
- ~Time: rough intended screen time, not camera roll time
Examples by video type
- Tutorial - hook, problem, steps as inserts, result, CTA
- Product review - unbox, hero, detail macros, in-use, alternatives
- Talking head - A-roll angles, cutaways for pacing, end screen plate
- Short-form hook - cold open visual, punch line, loopable end frame
