call sheet

Daily filming itinerary

A call sheet is a document distributed to cast and crew before a film or television shoot, listing the day's schedule, locations, scenes to be filmed, and when each person needs to arrive.

The assistant director typically prepares it: Check the call sheet—we're shooting the restaurant scene first.

Call time refers to when someone must report to set.
