24. Director’s Shooting Plans for ‘The Redeeming’ - 48 pages of shooting plans as used by director Brian Barnes on the sets of ‘The Redeeming’, 'The Urge' and the Mystery Bonus Video.

You can study the plans as you watch the film and see the results on the screen, deciding for yourself how you could have shot or staged the scene better. I've included blank set frames, so that you can plot out your own floorplans. A perfect learning resource for new and emerging directors. (PDF)
