Also, the radio probably won&#8217;t be next to your ear the entire time, and more likely, will be clipped to your clothing. Code words allow you to keep communication short, freeing up the radio channel for others. This allows you to say a lot with very little.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-walkie-talkie-lingo\"><span id=\"walkie-talkie-lingo\">Walkie-Talkie Lingo<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Walkie-Talkie-Lingo.jpg\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"755\" height=\"441\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Walkie-Talkie-Lingo.jpg\" alt=\"Walkie-Talkie Lingo\" class=\"wp-image-142117\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Walkie-Talkie-Lingo.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Walkie-Talkie-Lingo.jpg?resize=300,175 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Walkie-Talkie-Lingo.jpg?resize=277,162 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Walkie-Talkie-Lingo.jpg?resize=359,210 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Walkie-Talkie-Lingo.jpg?resize=543,317 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Walkie-Talkie-Lingo.jpg?resize=560,327 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Walkie-Talkie-Lingo.jpg?resize=150,88 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><figcaption><em>Walkie-talkie lingo varies depending on the profession.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Always remember that two-way radio code words varies depending on what industry or profession you&#8217;re working in.

This makes sure everyone isn&#8217;t talking over each other on the same channel. Specific channels will vary, but the channel list is usually included on the daily call sheet. A common channel list might look something like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Channel 1<\/strong> \u2014 Production.<\/li><li><strong>Channel 2<\/strong> \u2014 Open channel.

You don&#8217;t ever want to be &#8220;that guy&#8221; on set, making communication difficult for everyone else. However, the proper etiquette is pretty simple. First, <strong>speak clearly<\/strong>. This is by far the most important. If members of the crew can&#8217;t understand what you&#8217;re saying, you&#8217;ll be asked to frequently repeat yourself, which opens the doors for on-set mistakes and delays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, <strong>follow the channel rules<\/strong>. Seems simple enough. Speak on the assigned channels from the call sheet, and make sure you&#8217;re on an open channel for longer conversations. Finally, <strong>learn the voices of the crew<\/strong>. This will come with experience, but it can vastly speed up conversations and communicating tasks.

Walkie-talkies (two-way radios) are perfect for most film sets because they&#8217;re relatively cheap and small. They&#8217;re perfect for working in a confined location or building. However, walkie-talkies can be a little deceptive if you&#8217;re expecting them to get long-range signals. And, a lot of walkie-talkies will advertise that &#8220;they can work up to five miles.&#8221; This is because two-way radios operate in two different modes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first mode is <strong>FRS<\/strong> (Family Radio Service). FRS operates on channels 1-14 and anyone can use them. The caveat is that they&#8217;re limited to a shorter range, which is realistically about half a mile. (So, nowhere close to five miles!) The second mode is <strong>GMRS<\/strong> (General Mobile Radio Service), which requires a special <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fcc.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">FCC license<\/a> to operate. GMRS operates on channels 15-22 and they work over a much farther range, which realistically is about 2-3 miles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CB radios (which stands for Citizen Band) are primarily used in vehicles, but handheld CB radios are available, as well. Handheld CB radios can be quite bulky, but they can work over much longer distances than walkie-talkies. The best part is, they don&#8217;t require a specialty FCC license! They&#8217;re great for long-distance location shoots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-nato-phonetic-alphabet\"><span id=\"nato-phonetic-alphabet\">NATO Phonetic Alphabet<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, if you want to take your walkie-talkie skills to the next level, you&#8217;ll want to learn the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nato.int\/cps\/en\/natohq\/news_150391.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">NATO phonetic alphabet<\/a>\u2014a universal alphabet system to help ensure clear communication. You&#8217;ve probably heard it used before in military movies, but it&#8217;s used all the time by civilians as well. It works by assigning a word to each letter, so that a letter&#8217;s name begins with the letter itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>A<\/strong> \u2014 Alfa<\/li><li><strong>B<\/strong> \u2014 Bravo<\/li><li><strong>C<\/strong> \u2014 Charlie<\/li><li><strong>D<\/strong> \u2014 Delta<\/li><li><strong>E<\/strong> \u2014 Echo<\/li><li><strong>F<\/strong> \u2014 Foxtrot<\/li><li><strong>G<\/strong> \u2014 Golf<\/li><li><strong>H <\/strong>\u2014 Hotel<\/li><li><strong>I<\/strong> \u2014 India<\/li><li><strong>J<\/strong> \u2014 Juliet<\/li><li><strong>K<\/strong> \u2014 Kilo<\/li><li><strong>L<\/strong> \u2014 Lima<\/li><li><strong>M<\/strong> \u2014 Mike<\/li><li><strong>N<\/strong> \u2014 November<\/li><li><strong>O<\/strong> \u2014 Oscar<\/li><li><strong>P<\/strong> \u2014 Papa<\/li><li><strong>Q<\/strong> \u2014 Quebec<\/li><li><strong>R<\/strong> \u2014 Romeo<\/li><li><strong>S<\/strong> \u2014 Sierra<\/li><li><strong>T<\/strong> \u2014 Tango<\/li><li><strong>U<\/strong> \u2014 Uniform<\/li><li><strong>V<\/strong> \u2014 Victor<\/li><li><strong>W<\/strong> \u2014 Whiskey<\/li><li><strong>X <\/strong>\u2014 X-ray<\/li><li><strong>Y<\/strong> \u2014 Yankee<\/li><li><strong>Z<\/strong> \u2014 Zulu<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>As for numbers, you can pronounce them as they are, except for the number nine which is always <strong>Niner<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Learn more about boots-on-the-ground filmmaking here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/clapperboard-for-film-and-video-production\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">The Fascinating History of the Clapperboard for Film and Video Production<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/ellen-kuras-cinematography\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">The Mind-Bending and Emotive Cinematography of Ellen Kuras<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/exploring-panasonics-holy-trinity-for-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">Exploring Panasonic\u2019s Holy Trinity: Is It Fit for Video?<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/aputure-lightdome-vs-lantern\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">Lighting Modifiers: Aputure Light Dome Vs.
