Template FAQs

Common questions about the Stunt & Special Effects Request Form — what it captures, when to use it, and how to make it your own.

What is a stunt and special effects request form?

A stunt and special effects request form captures a scene’s action needs, recording the stunt or effect, what’s involved, the performers, date and budget. It gives the stunt and effects team what they need to plan the sequence safely and cost it, so nothing is improvised on the day.

What should a stunt and effects request include?

This form records the production title, a description of the stunt or effect, and what’s involved, along with the scene shoot date, location and number of performers. It also flags whether stunt doubles are needed, the budget, and captures the requester’s details and a safety acknowledgment.

When should a stunt or effects request be made?

As early as possible in planning the scene, since stunts and effects need rigging, rehearsal and safety sign-off. Requesting early gives the team time to assess the action, arrange doubles and equipment, and plan the safety, so the sequence is shot safely and on schedule.

Who fills out a stunt and special effects request?

Directors, first ADs and producers planning an action scene. The form captures what the effect involves and the budget, so the stunt coordinator and effects team can judge what’s needed, plan the safety and performers, and cost the sequence before it reaches the schedule.

Why capture performer numbers and doubles upfront?

Because they drive the planning and the risk. Knowing how many performers are involved and whether doubles are needed lets the coordinator arrange the right people, rehearsal and safety cover, so a demanding sequence is resourced properly rather than improvised when the crew arrives to shoot.

Is this stunt and effects template free to use?

Yes, completely free. Add or remove fields, adjust the options to match your productions, and restyle it to your brand, then embed it on your site or share a link — no coding needed. A free Fun Forms account lets you collect stunt requests.
