This is a really broad question but I figured I'd start us off with this.

How do you direct? Do you really control the camera or do you tell the DP the general shots you have and let him control it?

Do you op the camera like Michael Bay?

How involved in the color pallet choices are you? Do you decide what each color is, or do you give your PD a general idea and let her run with it?

Do you like to rehearse, or do you like to have the magic happen in front of the camera?

Do you edit? If not, do you sit behind the editor, or walk away and let him come to a conclusion?

While I try to get this place kicking more, let's introduces ourselves. :)

So I figured I would give this a go. Editors have r/editors, writers have r/screenwriters, why not have an r/directing for directors to discuss their craft?

I know that r/filmmaking, r/filmmakers, r/wearethefilmmakers are all places where viable directors hang out but I figured this could be a little more niche.

Let's start off with a few stories. What is your best and worst story? On or off set, directing an actor or otherwise?
