    Capture

    B-Roll

    B-roll captures everything behind the behind the scenes — the setup, the process, the hands, the transitions, the environment. The shot list itself is the accession: numbered, timecoded, signed at wrap, and filed against the work it belongs to.

    • Slate every setup: accession reference, date, location, operator, take number.
    • Log each shot as it happens — timecode in and out, subject, one line of description.
    • Mark restricted frames on the log the moment they occur, before any card leaves the room.
    • Sign the list at wrap. Later corrections are dated additions, never edits to the original.
    • Footage is retrieved by list entry. If a shot is not on the list, it is not in the record.
