“Alec Baldwin intentionally, without just cause or excuse, cocked and fired the loaded gun even though the upcoming scene to be filmed did not call for the cocking and firing of a firearm,” stated the lawsuit, which was obtained by The New York Times.
It goes on to say that Baldwin should have “assumed that the gun in question was loaded” until “it was demonstrated to him or checked by him that it was not loaded” and said Baldwin should not have relied on assistant director David Halls' guidance that it had been a “cold gun.”

"The cameras captured Alec shooting but Halyna and Joel were behind the camera so I don’t think the cameras captured them being shot.”
However, “cameras, lights and props were damaged” from the gunfire with “broken glass was everywhere,” so it is unclear if the footage would be salvable. https://www.the-sun.com/entertainment/3914033/alec-baldwin-shooting-captured-camera-gun-killed-cinematographer/
