Hoping to get some comments.

Thanks

Welcome to filmmaking.net!

The Movement Order is the exact address of the location as well as instructions how to get there.

Thanks.

Do you have an example? Do you need pictures to do a movement order?

Maybe you don't quite understand. A movement order is the exact address of
the location. In other words if you are shooting at a park you will write down
the address of the park (for example 1285 Main St.) and how to get there (for
example; from the highway get off on South St., turn right, then turn left on
Main St., parking is on the north lot)

It's also common practice for an additional sheet of paper with a map and detailed directions on it to be stapled to every callsheet that is handed out to crew at the end of the day (mostly for location shoots, not those on an established studio lot or stage).
