What about PWF and WD on a callsheet
Hi Brian,
I believe I’ve seen both of those. Offhand, PWF I believe has something to do with pulling an actor out of a Hold period, though I need to confirm that. The WF part would likely stand for “Work Finish.” I think PW is also an option.
As for WD, I can’t say for certain I’ve seen that on a callsheet. It looks familiar but I don’t know what it represents.
I’ll post here if I come up with an answer, or feel free to follow up if you find out something yourself!
Cheers,
Ben

Want to know wha SCWD stand for on a call sheet can some one enlighten me please
Hi Lucy!
I haven’t come across that one before. “WD” implies “work drop,” meaning the actor will work on that day, then will come back some time later. “S” may imply “start,” as in the actor’s first day. For example, “SWD” means “start work drop,” or in other words, start work on the project, to come back at some time in the future. The “C” is not clear. Perhaps it means starting something. Does the callsheet offer any hints as to what the actor is doing that day on set?
