That gets my lighting and moves down for when I have to do it in the field. If you look at news or movie pieces. There are formulas that work, establishing shots, medium and then close up shots. Moving camera to stationary camera, moving with the subject, and letting the subject move out of the frame. Practice the moves, perhaps make generic storyboard swatches to take in your bag which might just work to galvanize the work flow in the field (and look as though you have some sort of sixth sense to the client!) Now, I realize that shoots can be organic and have its own life, which could stray far from those storyboard swatches you have, but that is where your creativity comes in, to fill that instance. The swatches only serve as a base point to start with.
