Members, stage looks and practice rooms
- One mark per member. Five people in matching outfits blur together; give each a hair colour, a piercing or a scar. The same face in every shot.
- The stage look is a state. Practice clothes and the debut-stage outfit are two looks of one member. States.
- The practice room (mirror wall, wooden floor) is a location you will use in every episode. The same room in every episode.
- Dance works best as short shots of one or two members, not the whole routine in one take.
The debut stage, shot by shot
| Beat | Shot to adapt |
|---|---|
| The wings | [Shot 1] 3s: Medium shot backstage, coloured stage light spilling through a curtain. @Hana adjusts an in-ear monitor, hands shaking. |
| The stage | [Shot 2] 4s: Wide shot, the stage from the crowd, five members in silver outfits in formation, light sticks waving in the background. |
| The booth | [Shot 3] 3s: Close-up on @Jiwoo in a dark sound booth, headphones on, singing. |
| The line | [Shot 4] 4s: Close-up on @Manager Seo. @Manager Seo (whispering): That's not Hana's voice. (voice: Seo) |
Music: every episode is scored for you automatically, under the voices; there is no track picker, so plan the stage scenes around faces and reactions rather than a particular song. Background music.

- The ghost singer.
- The dating ban: an idol and a staff member.
- The survival show: one member is cut each episode.
- The fallen idol: a scandal, a comeback.
- The manager: the one person who knows all their secrets.
