Making up a Shot Sheet helped a writer get through the photography session faster, which alleviated heckling from Eddie H.This sheet was for a lesson on the Rochester carburetor, a pretty routine "over the shoulder" shoot based on the Claud Hunter CPCC programs.
Claud had a line in his original script about the small metal fasteners found on carburetors called "grasshopper clips." In his narration he said they were called this because they had a tendency to "hop off into oblivion." I kept this line in the Cardinal version.
It was rare to have anything off the wall in our scripts. One other example I can think of is when Tom Weathers snuck in some humor in his Slide Rule program. He used a scenario of the student "taking a slide rule into a grocery store to buy green beans," and then added something like "and you are hiding the slide rule under your coat so no one will think you are strange."
