Flowcharts/Shotlists
How does everything connect together?
Determining this before you go into production is fairly important. You need to have a script broken down into a shot list in order to effectively go out and produce your piece. Even in non-narrative pieces you need to know what footage you need to get, how and where you want to shoot and produce it.
