Most important, when directors work entirely this way they will have a very difficult time in maintaining coverage. And it is coverage that gives the editor and director the ability to shift focus, develop dynamics, and accomplish the vision of the story in postproduction. However, if you give actors the freedom to move within a certain and specific space while keeping in mind where your camera is or can be, their instinct as the characters should help define their motivations. Coming at it with a definite idea, suggesting it to your actors, and then having them work within the defined space is best of all-especially when the staging may be limited by the type of camera equipment you are using. When blocking, the closer you are able to keep the actors together, the easier will be for them to maintain relationships through the single- camera narrative process. The farther more difficult it is for their creative energies to interconnect. That is to say that if you choreograph your actors with unlikely or atypical distances between them (as we often see on stage), the more difficult it will be for them to continue the nuances of their performances, as they will have to reach out to connect The series of shots that are planned and required to tell the story in the scene.
