shooting script v/s script

I need to produce a 'shooting script' for my script. Apart from adding scene numbers... should I re-arrange the scenes in the order they would be shot?

Eg: If there is a HOSPITAL room scene in Page 1 and same HOSPITAL room in page 30, should that scene move to Page 2 ? (in the order it will be shot)
 
You're getting a shot list and shooting script mixed up.

Shooting script is the scenes numbered and shots referred too (as in CU of Jim's face).

Shot list is what you mentioned, when you break down the list of shots in one location (so you can get them all while you are there).

G-luck with the production.

I did 3 different scripts for the Black Angel production. The spec script for
easy read, the production script in which the scenes are numbered and the
character names are generated to show who you'll need for the scene, and
a location scene script in which I grouped all of the locations together.

It's not exactly a shot list, but it does help with knowing which scenes are to
be filmed in a cluster. My movie magic wouldn't sort the locations together
so I had to do it the old fashion way, copy-paste.

Good luck.
