Creating a B-Roll Shot List
Plan your B-roll before you arrive on location. A shot list saves time and ensures you don't miss critical coverage.
📝 Step-by-Step
- 1
Read the script twice
First for story, second specifically noting every visual element mentioned or implied.

Categorize by location
Group shots by where they'll be captured to minimize travel between setups.
- 3
Assign priority levels
Mark each shot as essential, important, or bonus. Shoot in that order.
