Programme Rundowns and Scripts

The programme rundown comprises of the script and timeings sheets. The script is probably the most important aspect because it contains stuff such as the dialoge, actions and sometimes camera movements and cuts to allow the talent to get an idea of what cameras will be operating and when.

The layout for the script lists all audio actions on the right, such as the name and length of sound effects and music while the left list's the video , such as name, length and track number. This is useful for the director and the sound desk because it supplies them with a good idea of run times for each insert.

One of the most important aspects of scripts is the VT timing sheet. This provides an accurate list of every VT insert, the order its shown in, the name, length and track number on the DVD. This provides the DVD op and Director with a way of accurately monitering how long each insert is and where it should fit into the show.

The script also mention which camera shots will be used for opening of the show, as well as listing all the shots the Director may call for during the show. Below are our final scripts.
