Shot list and scripting - News Unit

In our group we decided that shot lists weren't necessary for us to carry out the filming we did as there were no complicated scenes or different characters with different cues. Almost all the shots were a single presenter doing a piece to camera or stationary whilst talking. Also a lot of it was green screen which means very little movement (mostly just hand gestures).

As far as scripting goes, Gavin wrote the script however when the whole group reviewed it there were a few changes made just to improve the fluidity of the speech as we the presenters found a few phrases slightly jarring to say to camera. Some lines were improvised (not intentionally) however sounded better when watched. The only problem with this is if you needed to re-shoot, synch sound from a dub over or anything that regards sticking to script or being able to repeat what was said.
