This means that they have to move the camera to the opposite side and adjust the lighting so they can shoot the other actor’s reactions and lines for the same scene. When this is complete you have coverage (the different shots for one scene) of each actor for the entire scene.

After “turning around” and getting all the coverage that the director and DP feel is needed, you’ll hear “Moving on” come out of the AD’s mouth. This either means that you’re moving on to the next scene in the same location or that it’s a “company move” and the entire crew has to move to a different location to finish out that day’s shooting. If the next scene is at the same location, they start from the beginning again with blocking as explained in this previous post.

Lastly, “That’s a wrap!”, is an expression that is used for a number of different situations. First and most though, it means the end of shooting for that particular day or “That’s a production wrap” for the end of shooting principle photography. However it can also mean a “wrap” for an actor or department such as, “That’s a wrap on steadycam” or “That’s a production wrap for John Smith” at which point the crew claps and counts the minutes till they hear those words for their own department. Before a “wrap”, the crew is also listening for two other terms to come out of the AD’s mouth signaling a beginning to the end of shooting for the day… “The Abbey Singer” and “The Martini”… I’ll explain those in another post so for now, “That’s a wrap!” EB
