Ways of directing actors in a scene

Just some notes taken off in a lecture.

Two ways of directing actors in a scene:

1, Get the actors to cheoreograph and set the camera angles with respects to the actions and movement of the actors.
2. Block the actors in the scene with respects to what the director wants to see in the shot.

Basically, the actor with more lines will attract more attention off the audience. A thought to consider in blocking...

Another important factor to take note in framing a shot with actors:

1. Two eyes in a shot -> powerful frontal shot.
2. Four eyes in a shot -> even more impact.
