In order to know what types of shots i will need when filming, i have decided to set out a very easy/clear to understand table where it explains what each shot is, who's in it and the importance of each one. This will be useful to refer back to when making my product, as i will be able to look back at it to know that i am doing everything in the right order and have not missed anything out in my trailer. I may add more shots and may remove or change some of these, however these are the most important ones and this will act as my basic template.
