Final Script

I can know to start my planning. However, I do not need to do any research on storyboards, shot lists, Call sheets, production schedules, location shots, location recces and risk assessments as i have already done research of these in the past. I can now get into my most interesting imagination sequence which is the last question the gunshot effect.
