Not sure why no one has commented on this, but I found it really very helpful. There are plenty of BAD descriptions and a wealth of worthless advice on coverage on the vast and wonderful internets. This one is actually useful. Thanks for creating/postin it.

This is an ideal video for any aspiring director starting out. I've always loved watching movies but never really considered how much thought process goes in to each and every shot. This guy makes a great point about seeing the reactions on characters' faces up close, rather than a longer shot from far away.
