Call sheet

A call sheet is the daily schedule for a shoot, listing who is needed, when, where, and which scenes will be filmed.

Each actor finds their own pick-up, make-up and on-set times beside their name, along with a cast number and a status code.

In use

Check the call sheet for your pick-up time before you go to bed.
