YOU NEED A PRODUCER
This is a person totally available to help solve problems. A producer is there to help hire crew, wrangle in the Director if something is outside of their scope or budget, to help solve conflicts between or within departments, and to liaise with the location owners or rental houses. Larger productions have the ability to subdivide the work with a producer, a line producer, and a location manager -- but chances are an indie production will have all of these duties rolled into one.
KEEP ON CHECKING YOUR PROGRESS EVERY DAY
We're creative people with active imaginations. You've been brewing this idea in your head for days, weeks, or months. You can't arrive on set with everything still in your head and expect to shoot efficiently. Whether you use full storyboards, a skeletal shot list, or something in-between you should check off your progress throughout the day.
MATCH YOU CAMERA ANGLE WITH THE BEST LENS
When shooting coverage on dialog scenes, you'll instantly improve the quality of your shots if you match the lens and camera distance on each reversal angle. This matches the size and general perspective of each actor which allows for smoother inter cutting during editing. Subtle shifts in camera height can show a dominant and submissive relationship between characters
