    Directing Actors

    Mise-en-scene
    The arrangement of everything that appears in the framing actors, lighting, dcor, props, costume. The frame and camerawork also constitute the mise-en-scne of a movie. The director sits down with set designers, prop masters, location managers, costume designers, scenic artists and the producer to determine the look and feel intended. It is the result of the collaboration of many professionals.

    Shooting Script
    The director alters the writers script as they see fit and eventually craft the shooting script. The shooting script is normally broken into BEATS -- shots, featuring precise cinematography terminology such as CUs, dolly-in, crane, overexposed, handheld The director informs the crew what is going on Before the production dates the shooting script is transformed into a storyboard and then divided into dates and sequences and shot lists so that everyone knows what is going on and when

But screening the whole scene from a single wide shot would be boring, not to mention all the detail that would be missed. crafting a film involves recording a scene from different camera angles using different shot sizes to emphasize important elements. This use of subsequent camera setups is known as coverage. Coverage is important to keep things dynamic and exciting within the scene, but also to ease the editing process. More coverage is better than less Dynamic coverage is better than dull and overly simplified CUs, ECU, Mid Shots, Inserts

    Coverage
    It is one of the directors tasks to create a SHOT LIST thereby defining the coverage. Before principal photography starts, the director should know where the camera will be and what or who it will shoot. A movie with poor coverage always feels awkward, for it usually impedes the editor
