Kuvauslokit

Kuvauslokit refers to a Finnish term that translates to "filming logs" or "shooting logs." It is a document used in the production of films, television shows, and other video content to record detailed information about each day's filming activities.

The primary purpose of a kuvausloki is to serve as a comprehensive record of what was shot, when, and where. It typically includes the date and time of filming, the scene numbers being worked on, and specific takes that were successful or deemed worthy of further consideration. Information about the camera used, lenses, and any significant technical notes might also be included.

Furthermore, kuvauslokit often detail the dialogue that was spoken, any improvisations, or notable performances. It can also record practical details such as the weather conditions, the number of actors present, and any special effects or stunts performed. This log is invaluable for the editing process, allowing editors to quickly locate specific shots and scenes. It also aids in continuity management, ensuring that elements remain consistent throughout the production. Beyond editing, the kuvausloki serves as a historical document of the production, useful for archival purposes and for understanding the filmmaking process.
