How to Play ▾
You're the 2nd AC. The 1st AD calls cues from the left, the 1st AC speaks for camera from the right. Your job: keep the slate honest.
The basics:
· Set INT/EXT, DAY/NITE and SYNC/MOS on the slate before each take
· When the AD calls "Mark it!", clap the striped bar — Space
· End boards: flip the slate (F) and clap after "Cut"
· MOS = no sound: do not clap
· Second sticks = clap again immediately
· Red REC on screen = hands off all gear
Days unlock new chaos: T-marks (Day 2), batteries + media + crew mood (Day 2), lens + filter swaps (Day 3). Eight strikes and you're fired.
