There are 70 shots in total which sounds a lot, considering the brief states the film must be between 3 and 5 minutes, but the shots don't waste time: there's dialogue in the majority of them and some shots are less than 3 seconds.
Along with this I have also created two lists to help with filming as I will be shooting out of sequence: a tick list for each shot so I know when I have filmed them and a category list so I can film all of the same-styled shots together. For example one category groups all of the mid-shots in the Subconscious setting so I can shoot all of those in one go and not have to re-setup the location every time if I were to shoot in sequence.

I like shooting in sequence: it helps to keep a track of where you are; helps to prevent continuity errors and helps the actors keep their character's mindset in the right order. However I feel this shoot requires an out-of-sequence method otherwise it would take days or even weeks to film it all.
