How to Read the Cards
Each card has a scene number in its header, a colored frame around the storyboard, and a shot grid of icons on the right. The shot grid shows which icons are on the card; the grid positions are not transcribed here. The icon names below are the transcriber's descriptions, since the sheet does not print an icon legend.
Below the storyboard, each card has three text lines, transcribed in the order printed. Depending on the card, they give the focal length, the shot type and size, and one or two scene notes.
