Free film production templates

The templates

• Film continuity report template
  The paperwork a script supervisor hands in every day, ready to print or fill in: a continuity report per scene and take, the daily report with its production-time log, an editor's log and a lined script key.
• Call sheet template
  A two-sided film call sheet: everything the day needs on the front, the crew list with each person's call on the back. Print it, fill it in on screen, or keep it in Excel.
• Film budget template
  A film budget in Excel with the maths done for you: a top sheet, a detailed budget by account, fringes and globals, in a feature version and a short-film version.
• Film stripboard template
  A printable film stripboard with the standard colour code: a one-line strip sheet, a board layout to print on card and cut apart, and an Excel stripboard that colours its own rows.
• Shot list template
  A shot list laid out the way a shoot day runs: grouped by scene, numbered by shot and setup, with size, lens, movement, angle, camera and an estimate of the time each setup takes.
• Floor plan and lighting plan template
  An overhead plan sheet for blocking and lighting: a squared grid, a north arrow and scale, and a symbol key for cameras, lights, flags, dolly track, actors, walls, doors, windows and power.
• Day out of days template
  A day out of days chart: every cast member against every date, with the standard codes and the totals production and payroll need, counted for you in the workbook.
• Script breakdown sheet template
  One breakdown sheet per scene, with the scene header and a colour-keyed box for every category, so each element underlined in the script has a place to go.
• Location scout report template
  A two-page location scout report: everything the production needs to know about a place on the front, photos and an overhead sketch on the back.
