avant d'avoir posé ma question... mais si cela peut-être utile à d'autres, un lexique ("exposed film stock" = pellicule exposée) :

Sorry, that's not right! This is a subject that I used to teach at university level.

'exposed shooting stock' is not ambiguous; up till it actually passes through the camera, it is just film; but once it has been exposed (and even before it is developed!) it has gains specific added value because it now carries 'content'.

Even though film stock itself appears quite expensive, it becomes immeasuranly more valuable once your artistic endeavours have been committed to its little silver grains; and the legal moment of this value addition is at the moment of EXPOSURE; the subsequent development, even though a necessary step, is purely academic. E.g. for insurance purposes, imagine there was a fire and the exposed stock got destroyed before it was developed — it would stilll have all the value added to it by the fact of the production.

shooting stock could be interpreted as

stock of film to be used for shooting
=> any rolls that were filmed[exposed], even if not yet developed
(sounds unlikely to me, developing a film is usually a pretty small cost compared to all the preparations for shooting)

or

shooting stock = shooting "stock footage" or "stock photography"

i.e. any "stock footage" or "stock photography" i.e. not directly needed for the movie, but kept for later use in unrelated projects.

you really need the opinion of an insider in the film industry, or ideally a confirmation from of your client
