What's in a CCSL?
Specialized Scripts
Combined Continuity & Spotting Lists (CCSL) are extremely thorough transcripts of a production. They may contain:
​
-
dialogue
-
time codes of dialogue
-
speaker IDS
-
sound effects
-
time codes of edits
-
continuity
What are specialized scripts? These are scripts that contain more than just dialogue and/or must be formatted in a very particular way, depending on the type of script.
Some of the more specialized types of scripts we offer are:
-
Combined Continuity & Spotting Lists (CCSL)
-
Combined Continuity & Dialogue Lists (CCDL)
-
As-broadcast (ABS) scripts
-
Transcripts with language annotations (for translation and subtitling purposes)
-
Dialogue lists
