Film production glossaryWrap

Wrap is the end of shooting. It can mean the end of a day, the end of work at one location, the end of an actor's work on the film, or the end of the whole shoot.

Wrap in practice

When the first assistant director calls a wrap, the crew stops filming and starts packing: equipment is counted and returned, the location is cleaned and handed back, and the day's paperwork is completed. Wrapping a location badly, with gear left behind or damage unreported, is a common source of cost after a shoot.

Where it lives in CrewDesk

At wrap, CrewDesk carries the wrap tasks: gear is counted against the inventory, where every item has a storage location to return to, and the tasks are closed. Check-out and return tracking per shoot is a custom addition. A project that has finished shooting moves on from the Shooting stage.
