| 007 | Term | Shooting scriptA shooting script is the production-locked version of a screenplay, with every scene numbered and revisions tracked, used by the crew to plan and shoot the film. Unlike a spec, it carries scene numbers, locked pages, and coloured revision pages so the whole production references one stable document. | A shooting script is the production-locked version of a screenplay, with every scene numbered and revisions tracked, used by the crew to plan and shoot the film.

| 008 | Term | Scene numbersScene numbers are the figures placed beside each slugline in a shooting script so every scene has a stable address. Once a script is "locked," these numbers never change: new scenes get letter suffixes (47A) and deleted scenes are marked OMITTED, so the whole crew keeps referring to the same set. | Scene numbers are the figures placed beside each slugline in a shooting script so every scene has a stable address.

| 009 | Term | Revision marksRevision marks are the asterisks in the right margin of a shooting script that flag exactly which lines changed in the latest revision. Paired with a rotating sequence of coloured pages — blue, pink, yellow, and so on — they let a crew see at a glance what is new without re-reading the whole script. | Revision marks are the asterisks in the right margin of a shooting script that flag exactly which lines changed in the latest revision.

| 010 | Term | A-pageAn A-page is an inserted page in a locked shooting script that adds material without renumbering the pages that follow. When new content lengthens page 12, the overflow becomes page 12A (then 12B, and so on), so page 13 keeps its number and every department's existing references stay valid. | An A-page is an inserted page in a locked shooting script that adds material without renumbering the pages that follow.

| 011 | Term | OMIT / OMITTEDOMIT, or OMITTED, is the label that replaces a deleted scene in a locked shooting script. Rather than removing scene 47 and renumbering everything after it, the script keeps the number and marks it "47 OMITTED," so the deletion is visible and every later scene number stays exactly where it was. | OMIT, or OMITTED, is the label that replaces a deleted scene in a locked shooting script.

| 012 | Term | STETSTET is the proofreading mark — Latin for "let it stand" — used on a revised shooting script to cancel a change and restore the original text. When a line was altered in a previous revision and the team decides to revert it, STET in the margin tells everyone to ignore the edit and keep the line as it was. | STET is the proofreading mark — Latin for "let it stand" — used on a revised shooting script to cancel a change and restore the original text.

| 013 | Term | SidesSides are the small excerpts of a script handed out for a specific purpose — the few pages an actor reads for an audition, or the scenes scheduled for a single day of shooting. Pulled from the full screenplay, sides give a performer or crew exactly the pages they need and nothing more. | Sides are the small excerpts of a script handed out for a specific purpose — the few pages an actor reads for an audition, or the scenes scheduled for a single day of shooting.
