Free call sheet template
A call sheet is the one document every crew member actually reads. This template covers what a UK video shoot needs and nothing it does not: call times per person, the day's schedule, locations with parking notes and the nearest A&E, key contacts, weather with sunrise and sunset, and a safety section your crew can acknowledge.

What a good call sheet includes
- General call and per-person call times. The single most-checked detail on the sheet. Put both, prominently.
- Location with practicalities.Full address, a maps link, where to park and how to get in. For UK shoots, add what3words and the nearest A&E so nobody has to search for it in a bad moment.
- The schedule. Time blocks, not prose. Crew scan it; they do not read it.
- Crew list with phone numbers. Who is on set, what they do, how to reach them when they are late.
- Key contacts. Producer and first point of contact, names and numbers.
- Weather, sunrise and sunset. Decides lenses, layers and lunch timing.
- Safety notes. A short summary of the risk assessment, acknowledged by everyone before the day.
