Have you ever been on set and heard someone explain the blocking like this?

“She f.o.’s after he enters.”

Have you ever wondered what “f.o.” meant?

What “F.O.” Stands For

“F.o.” stands for “fucks off.”  It is not meant in the rude sense.  Instead, it is a somewhat crude synonym for “exits” or “goes away.”

So, saying “she f.o.’s” means “she exits” or “she goes away.”

(No worries, it’s not meant as mean.)

Wonder about any other terminology you hear on a TV or film set?  Post your questions below!
