F2X Films - Production Guide

Explanation & Usage

The Standard Camera Report is a critical document for tracking all material recorded by the camera department throughout each shooting day.

It provides Post-Production, the DIT, the Script Supervisor, and the Editor with a clear, structured overview of what was shot, on which roll, using which settings, and with what creative or technical notes.

This report is filled out primarily by the 2nd AC, and in some workflows completed or cross-checked by the DIT.

Accurate Camera Reports ensure smooth editing, proper backup organisation, and a clear match between picture, sound, and metadata.
