Thanks for your help everyone. The typo was mine, responsibility accepted and the entry has been corrected.
Daryo, no, it's a real script, and I had found several answers and wanted only one, to keep consistent.
Thanks

in "Vertigo", Hitchcock managed to invent a new kind of shot, a particular combination of zooming and focus shifting that's literally creating the feeling of vertigo when you watch...

Shame you're not allowed to post that as an answer, and I'm not allowed to agree with you!

You're right, I'd overlooked that. Silly me!

However, tiens, just found this :

Longshot
Images that show objects fully,
from top to bottom. When a
longshot focuses on characters,
the panel shows the characters
from head to toe. Readers can
see the character’s full body.

Longshot is apparently used in comic strip contexts.


If the link doesn't work, then after .org/ add the following :

a comic book has many parallels with a movie, and with photography.
Before shooting a professional movie, the whole movie is "told" scene by scene in a sort of comic book called "storyboard". Each frame in a movie, each drawing in a comics, each photography obey similar rules of “framing”, which this list is about.

"Don't overlook the typo in the original"
Yes, I did notice it immediately and just corrected automatically. At some point I wanted to make few movies of my own and studied this subject matter quite in-depth.
I also noticed that it makes far more sense for this list to be section in a manual for drafting comics, not part of a draft itself.

Would you use the word "shot" in a comic book?

16:30 Jul 3, 2012 

Don't overlook the typo in the original, "plan" is masculine, thus "général" : Environ 4 690 000 résultats (0,29 secondes). Over 4 and a half million hits in one third of a second, is a fair number of hits by any standard.

Also, "comic book draft" seems fine to me, as a draft version of a comic book.

in less than 5 minutes I've found few very likely "candidates" for this term. If you you want to wait for a targeted answerer, please yourself.
BTW would it be a "a comic book draft-ing manual" by any chance? Just seems more likely.

Establishing Shot
(ES) A shot used near the beginning of a scene to establish the interrelationship and context of elements to be shown subsequently in closer shots. Also termed a general view (abbr. GV), which is an establishing shot that places you in the environment. It is often a wide shot of an exterior of a building or of the location the scene is about to take us into next, and is also used as a transition shot from one location to another alongside music or narration.
