It includes everything from what camera angles.. to what lights to what music to what entry for every actors to what dialogs willl be spoken.. 😆 There r measure tapes on the floor where actors had to walk and stop etc.. its so freaking boring.. it also includes all the props for every scene.. like if its hospital, what background props r needed.. its so much in detail.. its more boring than reading telephone book.Thats why the narrative is more imp. The director's vision along with writter. Script changes all the times on sets.. unpredictable situations.. but screenplay shud not. Doesnt matter u shot last scene first or middle scene last.. the story telling is in screenplay... most imp is how the story has been told. Director knows it.. but since its his product.. and it goes over lenght.. he/she cant decide what scenes to chop off and still continue the story... thats when comes Editor. The biggest brain storming sessions wud be with director and editor and if some superstar wants to throw his weight around.. Editor looks at the film from public eyes.. the length of most BW is always more than u can have toilet break.. so he has to chop off some scenes n songs.. to make it watchable.Those r the roles of behind camera men.. i opened a poll on that but seems like its not worth it.
