1. Maintain the Emotion throughout the Story
2. Develop the story in different levels.
a. Plot Level
b. Pschyological Level
c. Political Level
d. Mythological Level
3. Stories may not agree with each other, most of the times they may contradict with each other. Use this as conflicts between the Characters, Scenes and the Story itself.
4. Use camera as a pen to describe :
a. Emotion of the characters
b. Pace of the Plot
c. Genre of the Story
d. Treatment of the Subject of the Story
5. Identify the purpose and contribution of these following aspects to the Story:
a. Each Episode to the Plot
b. Each Scene to the Story
c. Each Character to the Story
d. Each Shot to the Screenplay
e. Each Frame to the Screenplay
f. Each Conversation of the Characters
g. Each Dialogue of the Characters (Respective to the Actors/Actresses)
h. Patch work cinematography
6. Choose appropriate Back Ground Music (BGM) to convey the emotion of each and every scene or dialog. Noticeable areas to enhance the action or drama with music:
a. Introduction of Characters and the situations
b. Theme BGM's for Characters, Plot and the Action/Drama portions
c. BGM for Conversations
d. BGM for Ups and Downs in a conversation of dialogues
7. BGM must convince the emotion of the scene and never over elevate or drain out the emotion or performance of the scene or the actor.
8. Write your screenplay to copulate with the pace of the movie.
9. Shoot your scenes with the EDITED Scene in your mind. Especially while Starting a shot and ending a shot ( E.G : While saying ACTION and CUT)
10. Imagine the emotion and any reference BGM while shooting a scene. Get all the required footage you want so that you can enhance it with Editing and BGM. If you dont imagine the emotion with a reference BGM you may feel that the scene is dry or dull while shooting. So forget about the immediate effect of the scene you just shot, and go ahead and take maximum footage you want and the maximum performances actors can potray.
11. Allow the actors to perform a particular scene or shot or dialogue in as many ways as they can perform. There is never a single perfect take. Even if you get a perfect take, go for another or more and if and only if the actor is willing and comfortable to do so.
12. Let it be a conversation scene or action scene or drama scene, try to shoot it as follows:
a. As many angles as possible ans As many as different performances
b. Make sure you get Long-shot, Medium-shot and Close-up
c. Do not go for Extreme Close-up or Extreme Long-Shot unless and until its real contribution is needed to the story or the plot. (Read point 5)
d. Get as much as Patch work footage you can. This is the area where one can openly use the artistic freedom of the cinematography without any hassles or the dates of the actors or their performances
