Why Every Shoot Needs a Plan

Let me tell you something I’ve learned the hard way: winging it on shoot day might sound exciting, but it’s rarely a good idea if you want something truly impactful. Sure, some amazing music videos and content happen on the fly, but most of the time, the stuff that sticks with people comes from planning.

Why Scripts Matter

Think of a script like a group text with all the details laid out—it’s how everyone knows what’s happening, when it’s happening, and who’s doing what. Without it, people get confused, you waste time answering the same questions over and over, and the vibe on set takes a nosedive. Scripts exist for a reason: they keep things moving and ensure no one feels lost.

Gear Prep: The Unsung Hero

Let’s be real—forgetting something small, like an SD card or a battery, can mess up an entire shoot. That’s why I always double-check my gear. Backup batteries? Packed. Extra SD cards? Loaded. Tripods? Ready to go. It’s not about overkill; it’s about avoiding that sinking feeling when you realize you’re missing something critical.

Show Up or Shut It Down

Here’s the deal: if the talent or crew doesn’t show up on shoot day, we’re not shooting. It’s that simple. Everyone’s time matters, and one person flaking can derail the whole thing. If you’re committed, show up. If not, let’s save everyone the hassle and reschedule.

No One’s Perfect

Even with all the planning in the world, things will still go wrong. A battery dies, a lens doesn’t work, or you realize you left something at home. It happens to everyone, even professionals. The difference is that planning gives you a safety net. You’ll still hit a few bumps, but at least they won’t turn into full-on disasters.

So, whether you’re shooting a short film, a music video, or even just some quick content for social, take the time to plan. Trust me, it makes all the difference when it’s time to hit record.

Thanks @gearessentials for stopping into our Mundelein store and picking up these awesome @bodysolidfit barbell collars! . . #Repost @gearessentials with @get_repost ・・・ Really feeling the Body-Solid Tools OLY 2 Lock Jaw Collars for locking in weights on the barbell. When a product eliminates the annoyance from a daily repeated task... to me that’s money. No more squeezing of the barbell spring clips and trying to shimmy them on and off. Watch my video clip to see how the simple pull/push of the lever on this collar makes it simple to slide on and off your barbell. Snagged a pair for $23.99 @fitfactory_mundelein or check our their website at @fitfactorycom Definitely a worthwhile purchase if you have a home gym with a barbell. #weightlossjourney #weightlifting #weightliftingwomen #gymequipment #homegym #gymaccessories #bodysolid #fitnessfactory #barbellcollars @bodysolidfit #gefitness #gearessentials https://ift.tt/2FNpE73
