I design my shots in stage scene in depth rather than width with extreme depth of focus. I find in depth of focus you do not need to cut too much so I use tree camera to cover the scene from deferent angles because we can have power of story in the same shot.. Also sometimes I use steadicam because it`s much quicker.
I pass the script to the camera man and asking how you see the movie what you think this movie is about ….I want to hear what they have to say and how they can help me, tell the story…. rhythm of the picture comes from the camera man camera man can destroy you as director, he should know how to contribute with light and crew and how he run the set.
I want everyone on the set be better than me, I want the camera man to know about the operating the camera better than me… I want actors to be better actor than I`m….

Director Essential:
You should know everyone on the set want to test you should be aware of that and do not forget on the set just you have a few friend and if anything goes wrong you are a only guy is responsible about lost.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Director and Actor:
You should tell the actor what his\her intention is in this scene.
What they hope accomplish as character in this scene.
You have to be able tell them what they are in their life before and after walking in to the door.
As director in any scene you have to know what the intention of the scene is,
How this scene is going to further your movie and the scene does not do anything with your movie get rid of it,
Direct the action sequence:
What you have to do is show the audience where they are, once you show the audience where the things are then you can go and do a lot of cutting but it depends on the action sequence.

Advise:
· Your talent is important but it`s not everything. Definition of Talent which is doing easily and other people find it difficult.
· You should know basic of literature.
· You should study acting. Because the actors are your tools to tell your story and you have to be able to understand how actor functions and what makes work.
· You have to study editing.
· You should study in art (going to museum and watch the different kind of art to learn compositing and different use of colors).
· You should go to film school because you should know the basics.
· You should learn how to communicate with people.
· You should expose yourself to who you want to get job and express yourself to those they want to do the job for you..actor..Crew.
· Really you have to have a Point of View. (You have to have the vision that you want to make and you have to be stick with that.)
· You have to learn how to lose battle and win the war.
· You have make people do what you want to do, it`s very difficult but you have to find the way to do that….. The greatest way to have somebody does something absolutely drives the tractor to the wall for you is to make them think is their idea. That is the best way because it is come from them.
