## Prompt

```text
Create a call sheet and a shot list for my shoot day.

**Project and client:** [NAME]
**Date, location address, and nearest hospital:** [DETAILS]
**Crew and cast:** [NAMES, roles, call times if set]
**Script, storyboard, or deliverables list:** [PASTE - including formats like 16:9 and 9:16]
**Daylight or venue constraints:** [sunrise/sunset, venue access hours, noise restrictions]
**Shoot hours available:** [e.g. "10-hour day including 1-hour lunch"]

For the shot list:
- Number every shot; give scene, description, framing, movement, lens or setup notes, talent needed, props, and which deliverable it serves.
- Group shots by setup and location to cut turnaround time, not by script order.
- Schedule estimated times, with meal breaks placed per my union or local rules (commonly within 6 hours of call) and buffer before the light changes.
- Mark must-have vs nice-to-have shots, and flag any deliverable with no shot covering it.
- Include vertical or social-specific captures and stills where needed.

For the call sheet include: general crew call, individual calls, location and parking, weather, schedule overview, key contacts, safety notes, and nearest hospital.

Return:
1. The call sheet, formatted to send as is.
2. The shot list as a table: # | time | setup | shot | framing/movement | talent | deliverable | priority.
3. What to cut first if we fall behind.

Use only the names, addresses, and times I give you; leave [ADD] placeholders for anything missing.
