This is a 12-shot filming plan for a 60s TikTok vlog — morning Coffee Shop Vlog. Each shot specifies what appears on camera, the movement type, and the script or voiceover line, so you can film in sequence without stopping to think between takes. It's optimised for TikTok's fast-cut format, with the hook designed to land in the first 1–2 seconds. Use it as an on-set checklist: work through each shot in order, adjust framing to your location, and adapt the script lines to your own voice.

Why this format works
Vlog content works because it documents rather than performs. Without a shot list, vlogs wander — with one, you're capturing a specific story arc that audiences can follow. The difference between a vlog that gets replayed and one that gets skipped is intentional structure disguised as spontaneity.
Filming tips for TikTok
- Film your hook in the first 0.5 seconds — TikTok auto-plays without sound, so your opening visual has to carry the full weight.
- Shoot each clip slightly longer than you need. Jump cuts between takes lose energy; trim in edit, not on location.
- Natural light at a window beats a ring light for skin texture and authenticity — TikTok viewers can tell.
- Do the take you think you'll cut first, then the one you'll use. The second attempt has better pacing.
